No Title

Verse 1
You don’t call me baby in public
Only when the lights are low
You don’t post me on your story
But you don’t let me go

I know where I stand with you
Somewhere in between
Not your girl, not a stranger
Just a place you come to breathe

Pre-Chorus
You say I’m different
But different never wins
She gets the future
I get your skin

Chorus
I’m your lover, not your girlfriend
Your midnight, not your weekend
You hold me like you mean it
But don’t say what this is

I’m your secret conversation
Your safe place when she’s distant
You swear that I’m important
But never consistent

I’m everything…
Except the one you claim

⸻

Verse 2
You tell me things you won’t tell her
Like I’m your diary
Say she wouldn’t understand you
The way you feel with me

You like that I don’t ask for much
I play it cool, don’t push
But loving you in silence
Is slowly cutting deep

Pre-Chorus
You trace my waist
Like you’re scared to lose me
But not enough to choose me

⸻

Chorus
I’m your lover, not your girlfriend
Your comfort when it’s inconvenient
You kiss me like forever
But leave before it is

I’m the one who knows your secrets
The one who feels you different
You say that I’m your favorite
But favorites don’t get picked

I’m everything…
Except the one you claim

⸻

Bridge (soft, almost spoken)
If I asked you to define this
Would you freeze?
If I told you I can’t do this
Would you leave?

Or would you just
Find another me?
