Lyrics

I never thought it would be you
Wielded your knife, and chose my back

You held my trust, and it was safe
Looked in my eyes, make no mistake
Shared my fears, my broken plans
Trusted you with who I am

We laughed like friends, side by side
But truth was something you let slide
While I was blind, you played your part
Smiling while you tore my heart

I defended you when the world was cruel
Told myself I was no fool
But pain don’t wound the way you do
That’s when I finally knew

Nice guys get abused, chewed up, spat out and bruised
I gave you loyalty, you handed me lies and excuses
I thought you could be trusted
But your moral compass needs to be adjusted
You played me like a game I was doomed to lose

You used my name like it was cheap
Turned my truth into gossip you’d keep
Made me the joke in a crowded room
Let them laugh while you watched me bloom, then burn

You wore my face like borrowed skin
Took my wins and called them sin
I was real, you were rehearsed
Guess betrayal always hurts the worst

You said “my friend” without shame
But loyalty was just a game
I see you clear, the mask removed
Now I know what I survived

Nice guys get abused, chewed up, spat out and bruised
I bent till I broke just trying to protect you
I thought you could be trusted
But your moral compass needs to be adjusted
You made a fool of me and now I see the truth

Was it just convenient to plot alone?
A stepping stone you’d gladly disown?
If this is what friendship means to you
I’d rather stand alone than bleed for you

Nice guys get abused, chewed up, spat out and bruised
But I’m done paying the price for your misuse
I thought you could be trusted
But your moral compass needs to be adjusted
You lost someone real and that’s on you

You broke my trust, with your silly game
I’ll rise untouched, I'll bear no shame
I was loyal, I was true
The betrayal?
That belongs to you
