Pre-Chorus
I wasn’t trying to scar your heart
I was trying to touch it
I didn’t want you bleeding
I just wanted you to feel me
Chorus
If I ever made you feel my pain
It wasn’t revenge, it was a plea
I was screaming through the cracks
Trying to show you who I am to me
I don’t want us frozen in this space
Two ghosts learning how to grieve
I just want you to know me now
So we don’t spend eternity
Verse 2
You carried your own storms in
Never taught how to lay them down
I mistook your silence for distance
And turned my voice into sound
I know I crossed lines I regret
Trying to draw you nearer
Sometimes love comes out wrong
When the wound is deeper
Pre-Chorus
I see it clearer than before
The cost of every fight
I don’t want to win the past
I just want a different light
Chorus
If I ever made you feel my pain
It wasn’t cruelty, it was need
I was breaking just to prove
That I was real beneath the grief
I don’t want us hardened by time
Or rewritten by defeat
I just want you to know me now
So we don’t spend eternity
Bridge
I’m not asking you to change your scars
Or carry mine instead
I just want us to sit with truth
Before too much is left unsaid
Outro
If I hurt you trying to be known
I’m learning how to speak in peace
I don’t want to hurt to be heard
I just want us to be free
