Intro – Female]
Half of me still wants your name
Other half forgot your face
Why we always love in waves
Crashin’ into empty space
⸻
[Verse 1 – Female]
You call when the night’s too cold
I pick up like I don’t know
That you’ll disappear by dawn
Leavin’ perfume and a song
[Verse 1 – Male]
You say I’m distant, but you hide too
Love me loud, then go see-through
I ain’t perfect, never claimed I was
But you still run when it’s gettin’ tough
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Both, overlapping]
(Female) I give, I bend, I break too clean
(Male) You act like I’m not in between
(Female) You hold me like you know I’ll stay
(Male) But you don’t ever ask me to stay
⸻
[Chorus – Both in harmony]
Half of me is still with you
Half of me’s been cut in two
You say “we good,” but I see right through
We don’t love the same, but we still do
Half of me believes in fate
Half of me is lost in shame
We keep sayin’ we okay
But we break every time we stay
⸻
[Verse 2 – Male]
Your lipstick’s on my pillow still
But your heart’s somewhere over hills
We touch, but it don’t feel whole
We love, but we don’t got control
[Verse 2 – Female]
I pretend I don’t read between
All your “maybes” and your “in betweens”
You love me when the light is low
But hide me when the curtains show
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Both]
(Male) I never meant to dim your glow
(Female) Then why you leave me in the cold?
(Male) I ain’t tryna lose you slow
(Female) Then say the words you never show
⸻
[Chorus – Both in harmony]
Half of me is still with you
Half of me’s been cut in two
You say “we good,” but I see right through
We don’t love the same, but we still do
Half of me believes in fate
Half of me is lost in shame
We keep sayin’ we okay
But we break every time we stay
⸻
[Bridge – Both, switching lines]
(Female) You were home in the wrong season
(Male) You were mine without a reason
(Female) I gave too much to feel empty
(Male) And I stayed too long to feel steady
⸻
[Outro – Both, soft & layered]
Half of me… is gone
Half of you… still holds on
Maybe we… were just a song
Too short to sing, too loud to be wrong
