[Verse 1 – cinematic, atmospheric synth, male vocal close]
The nights are colder than they used to be
And the hardest part is learning how to bleed
The truth runs faster, yeah, it knows my face
But you’re nowhere near—just an empty space
I walk past all the places we used to be
The walls are watching, staring back at me
Your picture’s facedown on the table tonight
I try to drown you in these neon lights
[Pre-Chorus – building tension, layered harmonies]
Every heartbeat’s louder than before
Every step drags me back to your door
I said I’d let you go, said I’d finally heal
But every night proves the lie I feel
[Chorus – high‑energy, cinematic, vocal layers + harmonies]
If missing you was a crime, I’d be locked away—(locked away)
Serving time for every memory I can’t escape
I said I’d let you go, said I’d finally heal
But every night proves every lie I feel
I’m still burning without the right to shine
Still yours in ways that were never mine—(never mine)
[Verse 2 – punchy synth beat, rhythmic delivery]
If forgetting is freedom, why’s it so hard
To unlock the cage welded around my heart?
I find your traces in the smallest things
Why does love leave when it’s so damn deep?
Every empty room feels like you can see
How did you slip away like a stolen flame?
I’d give anything to hear you say my name—(my name)
[Pre-Chorus – tension + rising synth pads]
Every heartbeat’s louder than before
Every step drags me back to your door
I said I’d let you go, said I’d finally heal
But every night proves the lie I feel
[Chorus – cinematic, full production, male vocal layers]
If missing you was a crime, I’d be locked away—(away)
Serving time for every memory I can’t escape
I said I’d let you go, said I’d finally heal
But every night proves every lie I feel
I’m still burning without the right to shine
Still yours in ways that were never mine—(never mine)
[Bridge – stripped moment, vocal echo, cinematic drop]
I’ve learned the taste of lonely again
Heard your footsteps, but it’s just my memory instead
Maybe I was the storm, and you were the calm
I tore apart the place where we belonged—(where we belonged)
[Chorus – full cinematic energy, dramatic synth, harmonies]
If missing you was a crime, I’d be locked away—(locked away)
Serving time for every memory I can’t escape
I said I’d let you go, said I’d finally heal
But every night proves every lie I feel
I’m still burning without the right to shine
Still yours in ways that were never mine—(never mine)
[Outro – cinematic fade, echo on “never mine”]
Never mine…
Never mine…
Never mine…
