My mistake was putting you first
Forgetting myself in the process
Constantly dying of thirst
Selflessness is what I possess

You always came before second place
Now it’s time to change and have priorities rearranged
In the crowded streets I’ll no longer be searching for your face
Since we’re now distant and estranged

I uplifted you but without a warning you dismantled me
Emptied my soul and shuffled it like a puzzle piece
Funny enough I got warnings about how things would eventually be
I was deluded, thinking our connection would never cease

First place was your title in my heart
You shook the foundation we built and let it fall apart
Now I live in fear
It’s evident in my scars
