Lyric

Never Really Known You

Tera Kira

I never truly knew you

Always hiding behind a dark veil

It’s not my fault that you stayed hidden

Behind pretty words, empty and frail

I paid the price for blind trust

Once again my heart was crushed

“Don’t open to those who cannot love,”

I tell myself, for those who cannot see my heart

Like so many, you spoke so sweet

But behind the sound, only absence I’d meet

I believed in you, I gave my chance

But you hid away in frozen silence

Now I mean nothing to you

And you can’t even say goodbye

I won’t ask for your love

Too proud to beg or plead

I’ll let you go in silent waves

And slowly, the pain will recede

You were always free, I knew it well

No future for us, no stories to tell

There was never anything between us two

Just fading illusions in shades of blue

It had to be, everything comes at a cost

I never really knew you, now I’ve paid the loss

I believed in you, I gave my chance

But you hid away in frozen silence

Now I mean nothing to you

And you can’t even say goodbye

No more visits, letters, or brief messages

It’s over — I see clearly, no extra words

Be happy without me

Because you never really 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

Piano slowly fades, strings echo softly
