I Could Have Ruined You

I Could Have Ruined You Lyrics... You broke me in ways I didn't know a heart could break, You took my trust and crushed it just for heaven's sake, You lied to my face while I was praying for your soul, You made me feel worthless while I was trying to make you whole, You told your friends I was the problem, I was the mess, While I was the one who held you through your own darkness, You did the worst thing anyone could ever do to me, And I still treated you like you were everything. And I had every right to burn it all down, I had every reason to spread your name around, I had the receipts, the proof, the texts, the calls, But I sat in silence while you watched me fall. I could have ruined you the way you ruined me, I could have told the world what you did so they could see, I could have made you feel small, made you feel ashamed, I could have dragged your name through every kind of pain, But I didn't, no, I didn't, 'cause that's not who I am, I took the knife out of my back and I still held your hand. I could have called your mother, told her what you did, I could have posted everything, made you feel like a kid, I could have shown your new man the messages you sent, I could have made you lose everything in one moment, I could have cheated too, tit for tat, eye for eye, I could have broken you the way you broke me dry, I had a thousand weapons sitting in my hand, But I chose to be a man when you chose to be a brand. And I had every right to burn it all down, I had every reason to spread your name around, I had the receipts, the proof, the texts, the calls, But I sat in silence while you watched me fall. I could have ruined you the way you ruined me, I could have told the world what you did so they could see, I could have made you feel small, made you feel ashamed, I could have dragged your name through every kind of pain, But I didn't, no, I didn't, 'cause that's not who I am, I took the knife out of my back and I still held your hand. And the worst part is you'll never even know, How close I came to letting all of it go, How many nights I typed your name and almost pressed send, How many times I almost let this be your end, But I loved you too much to ever do you wrong, So I turned my pain into this broken song, And you'll listen one day and you'll finally see, The worst thing you did — I could have done to you, but I let you be free. I could have ruined you the way you ruined me, I could have told the world what you did so they could see, I could have made you feel small, made you feel ashamed, I could have dragged your name through every kind of pain, But I didn't, no, I didn't, 'cause that's not who I am, I took the knife out of my back and I still held your hand. I could have... but I didn't... And that's the difference between me and you... forever. 🎤 Singer: Random on Streets ✍️ Written & Composed by Ritik 📺 Channel: Ritik Musics
