Instead

I was your rival
and I didn't know
you saw me as your enemy
you saw me as a foe
you saw me as a robber
of all the love
you thought you had nothing
while I had it all...

You saw me as you rival
you didn't understand
I didn't want to be here
in the first place
I felt into that hole
without my consent
and I wanted to leave
but instead, you left.
