Nothing Sweet Left

Nothing Sweet Left

You poured your love like broken glass,
Shiny lies I let slip past.
Every word, a hidden sting,
I was the fool who wore your ring.

Bitter… that’s the taste you leave behind,
Rotten truth you dressed in kind.
You smiled and watched the wreck complete—
Now there’s nothing sweet left in me.
Bitter… like the silence in your eyes,
Where love once lived but now just dies.
You turned your back, you lost the key—
Now there’s nothing sweet left in me.

I begged for real, you fed me fake,
Served my heart for your own sake.
Took my trust and played pretend,
But all good things break in the end.

Bitter… like the truth that came too late,
You never loved—just sealed my fate.
You left your mark so carelessly—
Now there’s nothing sweet left in me.
Bitter… like the kiss you never meant,
Like the time you never spent.
You broke me slow, intentionally—
Now there’s nothing sweet left in me.

I tried to hold on, now I let go,
Of everything you’ll never know.
You made me cold, you set me free—
Now I’m the bitter you couldn’t see.

Bitter… but I’m not the one to blame,
You lit the fire, I kept the flame.
You wrote the script so selfishly—
Now there’s nothing sweet…
Nothing sweet left in me.
