What Did I Know?

You said forever, then slipped away

Now I relive what you won't say

I gave you light you wouldn't hold

And watched it flicker into cold

I took your hand, you pulled away

I begged for love, you wouldn't stay

Oh, my love, what did I know?

You let me fall, you let me go

Oh, my love, you lit the flame

Then vanished deep into the haze

Held me close, then turned away

And left me lost inside the blaze

Your silence hit like something sharp

A quiet wound that left a mark

You smiled like everything was fine

But I could feel the end in mine

I played our song on repeat

Still searching for the lost heartbeat

Oh, my love, what did I know?

You let me fall, you let me go

Oh, my love, the fire's gone

But still I stand among the ash

Oh, my love, what did I know?

I thought we'd rise instead of crash

You built a dream, then shut the door

And left me needing something more

You were the heat, I fed the flame

Now all that's left is just your name

Oh, my love, you struck the match

Then walked away and let it burn

Left me cold and out of place

With nothing left and no return

Oh, my love, you struck the match

Then walked away and let it burn

Left me cold and out of place

With nothing left and no return

Oh, my love, the fire's gone

But still I stand among the ash

Oh, my love, what did I know?

I thought we'd rise instead of crash
