I told you I would hold your darkness
I loved it just as much as your light
Your darkness merged with the shadows
Afraid it would be revealed if caught with sight
I fell in love with the filtered you
But the whole of you was never really prepared
To be seen and noticed by naive me
And once I got that snapshot your shadow grew scared
I never realised your dark could put out the flames
It dimmed out the light of my spark
I had already fell so deeply in love with you
It took me so long to realise I fell in love with a narc
Isn't it strange how I still crave your darkness
Despite the bruises and the defamation of my name
Yes, I have been set free from your control
But you also left me with a novel of blame
Still so convinced that beyond your dark is your good heart
Highlight you worked so well on me from the start
You knew when you left I was weak
And weak is the only way we you could leave me
Leaving me weak is the only way you could part
Knowing I had started to see beyond your perfectly painted mask
And it's falling out of love with you which is the task
I never knew the real you from the start
Now I am left wondering who it is that has possession of my heart
