When I Look At You

When I Look At You
By James Pullen

Lyrics
....
[Verse]
Eyes burn holes, every glance is a curse,
Heart heavy, pumping pain, it’s the worst.
Gave you my all, now I’m stuck in reverse,
You flipped the script, left me lost in this verse.

[Prechorus]
Thank you for the chaos, for the wreck, for the flames,
Thank you for the lessons, though I hate your name.

[Chorus]
When I look at you, all I see is disgust,
Your shadow of lies turned love into dust.
You were all I ever wanted, yeah, that’s a fact,
But thanks for screwing that up, now I can’t go back.

[Verse 2]
Your smile’s a dagger, cutting deep through the air,
Promises empty, nothing real was there.
Chest tight, every breath feels like a theft,
You took my best, left me hollow, bereft.

[Bridge]
Was it worth it, the games, the deceit, the charade?
Every word you said was a hand grenade.
I built you a castle, you tore it to shreds,
Now I’m left counting the tears that I bled.

[Chorus]
When I look at you, all I see is disgust,
Your shadow of lies turned love into dust.
You were all I ever wanted, yeah, that’s a fact,
But thanks for screwing that up, now I can’t go back.
