The More I Give

[Verse 1] Every piece of me, laid bare, I've shown With every truth revealed, my cover's blown In this game of hearts, I played my part But the more I gave, the more they took apart [Chorus] The more I give, the more they take A cycle of loss, in this heartache With every open door, a piece of me fades The more I show, the more I'm betrayed [Verse 2] Shared every secret, every fear, every dream But the more I opened up, the less I seemed Thought vulnerability would bring us close Instead, it left me empty, a mere ghost [Verse 3] Every tear that fell, a story it told Of the warmth I gave turned bitterly cold In the whisper of nights, I reached for a spark Only to find shadows dancing in the dark [Chorus] The more I give, the more they take A cycle of loss, in this heartache With every open door, a piece of me fades The more I show, the more I'm betrayed [Bridge] In the echo of my steps, I hear a call To the heart I knew before the fall Searching for a light to lead me back To the solace of a track long known, my own track [Chorus] The more I give, the more they take A cycle of loss, this endless heartache With every open door, a piece of me fades The more I show, the more I'm betrayed [Outro] Yet still, I hope for a change to find, A place in hearts where love's not blind In giving, I'll find my path, my home, Where the heart rests, never alone ,
