Lyric

Never Really Knew You

Tera Kira

I never really knew you

Always hiding behind a dark veil

It’s not my fault you stayed away

Behind words so sweet, yet hollow and frail

Like so many before, you spoke so tender

But behind the sound, there was only surrender

I believed in you, I gave you a chance so true

But you hid away in silence so cold

Now I’m nothing at all to you

And you don’t have the courage to say goodbye

I pay the price for trusting blind

Once again, they trample my heart

And every time I tell myself:

“Don’t open up to those who cannot love

To those who cannot cherish my honest heart.”

I won’t beg for your love

I’m too proud to plead

I’ll let you go in quiet shadows

And slowly, the pain will leave

You were always free, I knew it well

Our future together will never dwell

There was never anything real between us

Just illusions fading into the blue

So it must be, everything comes at a cost

I never really knew you… now I pay what I lost

I believed in you, I gave you a chance so true

But you hid away in silence so cold

Now I’m nothing at all to you

And you don’t have the courage to say goodbye

No more visits, no letters, no short messages

It’s over, I understand without another word

Be happy without me

Because you never truly held me in your heart

I never really knew you

And now I pay the full price

Goodbye to you

Goodbye to a fragile dream
