Shanti’s Tale Lyrics

[Spoken]
I lost myself before
I fell in love with someone who brought me playfulness
And light to my life at a time when I felt the complete opposite
I felt a weight of responsibility, and I was very, very serious
And he was just, fun
And as our relationship progressed, I was always in his world
And he wasn't really interested in mine
He just wanted to enjoy the easy parts of me
And there was no balance
And I startеd to feel it
I started to feel ashamed and used
Until I got angry
And I rеalized he couldn't have access to any parts of me
Until he could accept and love all of me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
