BOUND (by Lil DC6)

BOUND

We were written in the stars, but the sky fell down,
Promises like fireworks—bright but they drown.
You’re the rhythm to my rhyme, but the beat won’t last,
A perfect melody… played in the past.

Fate got a funny way of lyin’,
Hands touch but the timing’s wrong.
We’re a "should’ve been" in a "never was" song…

We were bound to crash, bound to burn,
Bound to love too deep but never learn.
Bound by the heart, but the world got chains,
Destined to want you—destined to pain.

Every kiss feels like a last goodnight,
We fight the universe but lose every time.
You’re the "almost" that kills me slow,
The heaven I touch but never hold.

If lifetimes exist… maybe then.
But this one’s just "almost" again.

I still taste your lies like cheap fucking wine,
A vintage "forever" that turned with time.
We built castles but forgot the damn moat,
Now I'm drowning in the love you revoked.

Your "I'll change" was just bullshit confetti,
Pretty words that meant "maybe" not "ready".
I carved my soul into your fucking hands,
Just to watch you wipe it in the sand.

If lifetimes exist... maybe then.
But this one's just "almost" again.

We were bound...
Just not bound enough, motherfucker.

Your touch was scripture I worshipped too hard,
Now I'm picking your faith from my broken shards.
We were altar and flame, sacred and pure,
'Til you turned communion to something obscene.

I carved "forever" in my fucking veins,
While you were drawing exit signs in the rain.
Our temple collapsed with the first real test,
God laughed at the mess we called "holy" and blessed.

The universe owes me one good reason,
Why it dangled heaven then committed treason.
I still wake up reaching for your ghost,
Addicted to the love that hurt me most.
