I was just a shadow in your bright light
Caught in the crossfire of your endless night
You aimed your love, but it wasn’t for me
Now I'm just the ghost of what I used to be

I'm the collateral heart you left behind
A casualty of love that wasn’t mine
You didn’t mean to break me down
But here I am, shattered on the ground

You gave your all to someone else’s flame
I was just the spark that couldn’t sustain
Now I'm lost in the echoes of your touch
Just a silent scream that hurts too much

I'm the collateral heart you left behind
A casualty of love that wasn’t mine
You didn’t mean to break me down
But here I am, shattered on the ground
I'm the collateral heart you left behind
A casualty of love that wasn’t mine
You didn’t mean to break me down
But here I am, shattered on the ground

Uh, uh
Uh, uh

I didn’t see the signs
Didn’t know I was the sacrifice
For a love that was never meant for me
Now I'm left with all these scars I can’t set free

I'm the collateral heart you left behind
A casualty of love that wasn’t mine
You didn’t mean to break me down
But here I am, shattered on the ground
I'm the collateral heart you left behind
A casualty of love that wasn’t mine
You didn’t mean to break me down
But here I am, shattered on the ground

Now I'm just a whisper in the wind
A memory of what could have been
Collateral damage, nothing more
In the war of love, I lost the score
