Casualty - Anna Akana

You built me a castle

Said I’m safe in its walls

But it was made of cardboard

Then you lit a match

And you burned it all down

But I never once asked what for

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

Just because you don’t love me anymore

Casualty

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

Just because you don’t love me anymore

I stand in the ashes

Watch you take flight

As quickly as a hummingbird

You left behind a poem

Of fire and goodbyes

Oh how much I love your pretty words

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

Just because you don’t love me anymore

Casualty

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

Just because you don’t love me anymore

Turn from me

At least that means you’re feeling something

At least that means you’re feeling something

At least that means you’re feeling something

Run from me

At least I know I tried for something

I don’t believe I meant nothing

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

Just because you don’t love me anymore

Casualty

I’m no casualty

I’m no casualty

You don’t love me anymore
