There comes a day when you realize that you lived more for others and forgot to live for yourself. That you gave up on yourself, out of love and generosity, wanting to see others happy.
Sometimes you end up making so many compromises that you lose your own identity. You no longer live according to your own wishes and no longer put your needs first. You no longer live your life, but live the lives of others.
And there comes a day when you realize that everything you did was in vain, because others did not appreciate anything you did for them. They act as if you were a nobody to whom they owe nothing, not even respect and consideration. In their selfishness, they were too blind to see that you sacrificed and gave up who you were, for their sake.

The pieces of me, left behind?

[Verse 1]
There was a time I wore a smile,
Gave my heart, ran the extra mile.
But in the shadows, I lost my way,
In the name of love, I began to sway.
I gave you dreams, I gave you trust,
Hoping one day, you’d see the rust.
But I faded slowly, like the evening light,
A whisper of me, lost in the fight.

[Chorus]
What did you do for me?
When I was there, did you even see?
A heart that wandered, a soul that bled,
What did you do for the tears I shed?
In your world of take, did you stop to find,
The pieces of me, left behind?

[Verse 2]
I molded myself to fit your needs,
Planted my love like forgotten seeds.
But as I watched you dance in grace,
I vanished in silence, lost in space.
Each compromise felt like a chain,
Buried beneath your relentless gain.
Year after year, I played the part,
But you turned away from my aching heart.

[Chorus]
What did you do for me?
When I was there, did you even see?
A heart that wandered, a soul that bled,
What did you do for the tears I shed?
In your world of take, did you stop to find,
The pieces of me, left behind?

[Bridge]
Now I stand before this empty space,
Searching for the light of my own embrace.
Did I lose the fight just to make you smile?
In chasing your joy, I lost my style.
But there’s a dawn beyond this night,
I’ll rise again, reclaim my light.

[Chorus]
What did you do for me?
When I was there, did you even see?
A heart that wandered, a soul that bled,
What did you do for the tears I shed?
In your world of take, did you stop to find,
The pieces of me, left behind?

[Outro]
So here I am, ready to be,
No more lost in your history.
I’ll find my voice; I’ll sing my tune,
In the mirror’s gaze, I’ll find my room.
What did you do for me? It’s time to see,
The love I was meant to give it to me.
