Loyal Through the Pain

I held your hand through the storms you made

Gave you my heart with my own heartbreak

You brought the hurt, I brought the grace

Stayed in the dark just to see your face

Every scar you left

I wore in silence every broken promise

I turned to kindness

I was bleeding, but I never let go

Loved you low and slow

I was loving you through all of the pain

Still standing here when the tears came

Loyal to the bone, even when it burned

Giving you my trust without getting the same in return

I was loving you through all of the pain

And I stayed when I should've walked away

Even when my heart knew better than to wait

I was loyal anyway

You never learned how to meet me halfway

Took my love and let it say

But I kept on hoping you'd change your ways

Like a prayer that I wouldn't betray

Now I see the truth in the quiet nights

Love ain't proof if it only survives

One-sided wars and a heart that bends

I'm finding myself again

I was living you too long

Love the pain

Still standing here when the tears came

Loyal to the bone even when it burned

Giving you my trust without getting the same in return

I was loving you through all of the pain

But I won't quit choosing what destroys me again

I gave you forever, now I choose my name

I'm loyal, but not the same
