A Mistake of Regret

I said the words I can't take back

Thought I was strong, but I just cracked

Watched you walk into the dark

With pieces of my broken heart

I lied and said that I'd be fine

But I've been counting every sign

All the echoes left behind

Still haunt the silence in my mind

If I could turn the hands of time

Undo the weight of every line

I'd trade the calm for all the storm

Just to hold you like before

'Cause I made a mistake I can't forget

Built from pride and deep regret

I lost the light when I let go

Now I'm drowning in the undertow

It wasn't just a choice I made

It was a heart I threw away

And now I ache in every breath...

A mistake of regret

I replay all the could-have-beens

The nights we danced, the days we sinned

You were the truth I couldn't face

Now all that's left is empty space

I chased a shadow of control

While losing pieces of my soul

Now even time won't heal the cost

Of everything I've loved and lost

If I had known that was the end

I'd hold you closer, not pretend

But silence grew where love had been

And I let the dark back in

I made a mistake I still regret

A love I never should've left

I see your face in every dream

But wake up torn at every seam

It wasn't just a chance I missed

It was your heart I can't resist

And now I bleed with no reset...

A mistake of regret

Maybe in another life

You'd stay... and I'd make it right

But I broke us with what I didn't say

And now I watch you fade away...

I made a mistake I won't outlive

No more excuses left to give

I lost the fight, I lost my way

Now I'm the price I have to pay

It wasn't just a fall from grace

It was the end I can't erase

And I still whisper your silhouette...
