Lyrics
[Intro]
[Catchy Power Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
I was the sun in your sky,
Lighting up your darkest night,
But when the shadows closed in tight,
You faded out of sight.
[Pre-Chorus]
Promises like whispers in the wind,
I thought you'd be there 'til the end.
[Chorus]
When the dust settles, you're nowhere to be found,
You were there for the glory, not when I was down,
Now I'm picking up the pieces, standing on my own,
When the dust settles, I'm here all alone.
[Interlude]
[Guitar solo, conveying the pain of betrayal and loss]
[Break]
[Verse 2]
You took my strength, you took my pride,
Left me with nothing but a hollow inside,
The echoes of our laughter, they haunt me still,
But I know now, it was all for the thrill.
[Pre-Chorus]
Empty words that felt so true,
Now I see right through you.
[Chorus]
When the dust settles, you're nowhere to be found,
You were there for the glory, not when I was down,
Now I'm picking up the pieces, standing on my own,
When the dust settles, I'm here all alone.
[Bridge]
I thought we'd rise, we'd fight, we'd fall,
But you were never there at all,
Now the truth is clear as day,
Real friends don't just walk away.
[Break]
[Melodic Interlude]
[Choir]
When the dust settles, I'm here all alone.
[Bridge]
I thought we'd rise, we'd fight, we'd fall,
But you were never there at all,
Now the truth is clear as day,
Real friends don't just walk away.
[Break]
[Melodic Interlude]
[Choir]
[Break]
[Chorus]
When the dust settles, you're nowhere to be found,
You were there for the glory, not when I was down,
Now I'm picking up the pieces, standing on my own,
When the dust settles, I'm here all alone.
[Ending]
[Guitar strumming]
When the dust settles, when the dust settles,
I'm here, I'm here, standing all alone.
Now the truth is clear as day,
Real friends don't just walk away.
[Chorus]
When the dust settles, you're nowhere to be found,
You were there for the glory, not when I was down,
Now I'm picking up the pieces, standing on my own,
When the dust settles, I'm here all alone.
[Ending]
[Guitar strumming]
When the dust settles, when the dust settles,
I'm here, I'm here, standing all alone.
