Lyrics: Janelle Monae. The Audition. You Are My Everything.

you
you were my everything
you were my everything
the reason why i hoped and dreamed
you and i are a story untold
and now your gone
and my hearts turned cold

words cant describe
how i feel inside
with a heart so small
dont feel sorry for me
dont you feel guilty
since you moved on
internally he murdered me
my emotions bleed no more
i'll have chills at night
probably till i die
and feel a love reborn cause

you were my everything
you were my everything
the reason why i hoped and dreamed
you and i are a story untold
and now your gone
and my hearts turned cold

emotionally i was confused
but only for a second there
was i fooled
gave you all of me
every part of me
even sacrificed my precious jewel
then you patiently chipped away at me
using your words as tools
and i compromised my identity
and gave into me
just to play by your rules

you, you were my everything
you were my everything
the reason why i hoped and dreamed
you and i are a story untold
and now your gone
and my hearts turned cold

now that im free
i can release all that i have in me
all that ive held in for so long
wont let that keep me from moving on

now that im free
i can release all that i have in me
all that ive held in for so long
wont let that keep me from moving on

words of advice
speak from your heart
let the truth see you through
cuz what goes around
always comes around
and this could be you singing...

you were my everything
you were my everything
the reason why i hoped and dreamed
you and i are a story untold
and now your gone
and my hearts turned cold

cuz you were my evrything
the reason why i hoped and dreamed
you and i are a story untold
and now your gone
and my hearts turned cold

my hearts turned cold
