Swallow my pride

Swallowed my pride, it was hard to confess
Thought I could save you, but I felt the distress

You hid those scars, wrapped tight in your charm
Maybe it's just who we are, no alarm

We danced in the shadows, lost in the night
Chasing illusions, trying to make it right

Every tear that fell was a story untold
In a world of colors, we were shades of cold

Tried to mend the pieces, they slipped through my hands
Built a castle of dreams on shifting sands

We're reflections of echoes, just ghosts in the dark
Searching for light, it's fading, a spark

Still, I hold the memories, etched deep in my heart
In this game of love, we played our part

Swallowed my pride, the weight was immense
Thought I could save you, but it made no sense

You covered the scars with a smile so bright
Deep down inside, we were losing the fight

In the silence, I felt the echoes of pain
Chasing our shadows, caught in the rain

Every whisper of hope turned to dust in the air
Searching for solace, it wasn't there

We built up a fortress, but the walls started to crack
In the game of love, we couldn't find our track

Two souls intertwined, we drifted apart
Caught in the chaos, lost in the heart

Maybe it's fate, or a lesson to learn
In this dance of life, we take our turn

Through the struggle, we still found a way
Navigating shadows, chasing the day

In the wreckage of dreams, we learned to stand tall
Even when we stumble, we'll never fall

Memories linger, like ghosts in the night
Together we shine, turning dark into light

Every scar tells a story, a chapter we write
In this journey of love, we'll keep up the fight

So let's raise a glass to the battles we've won
In this thing we call life, we'll dance till we're done

With every heartbeat, we're crafting our fate
In this wild adventure, we'll never be late

Through the highs and the lows, we'll find our way
Together forever, come what may

So follow me to the future, I know the way.
