Behind Your Smile

I'm choking on the silence, every breath a war
Fighting shadows in the dark, but I don’t know what for
Your words were daggers wrapped in velvet lies
Now I'm tangled in the echo of goodbyes

The promises we made are ashes on the floor
Burning pieces of a love that is no more
You smiled while you watched me slowly drown
The king you crowned has now burned his crown

Do you feel it— this weight in your chest?
Or was love just a game, a cruel test?
I see through the cracks of your porcelain grin
What monster hides beneath your skin

Behind your smile, there’s a storm untamed
A twisted dance of love and pain
The tide has turned, and now I see
The villain you were shaping was me

Behind your smile there's a spark meant to ignite
But love is a fire that burns out of sight
I tried to build us a fortress so high
Yet you tore it down with every lie

I became what I swore I’d never be
A mirror of the darkness you gave to me
Now the roles reversed, I wear your face
Lost in the madness of our twisted chase

Do you feel it—this weight in your chest?
Or was love just a game, a cruel test?
I see through the cracks of your porcelain grin
What monster hides beneath your skin

Behind your smile, there’s a storm untamed
A twisted dance of love and pain
The tide has turned, and now I see
The villain you were shaping was me

Is redemption just a word we say
When love slips like sand and drifts away?
I wore your scars, now they feel like mine
In this cruel ballet where hearts entwine

Behind your smile, there’s a storm untamed
A twisted dance of love and pain
The tide has turned, and now I see
The villain you were shaping was me

The tides will shift, the winds will blow
We reap the pain from seeds we sow
And in your smile, I finally found
That love and hate both wear the same crown
