(Verse 1)
Kiran…
I still see your shadow in every quiet room,
Hear the echo of your voice like a half-forgotten tune.
I know I left you drowning in the pain you had to bear—
But I swear I never meant to leave you standing there.
You looked at me with anger that I earned a thousand times,
But underneath your fury, I could hear the silent cries.
If I could trade my heartbeat just to take your hurt away,
I’d give my life a thousand times without a word to say.
(Pre-Chorus)
You think I abandoned you, think I let you fade—
But you never saw the prison where I was forced to stay.
Every day I whispered, “Please, let him survive.”
And every time I bled, I prayed you’d stay alive.
(Chorus)
If you ever hear my name again,
Know I loved you more than wind or rain.
I never meant to lose your trust,
I never meant to let you rust
In chains that mirrored mine.
And even if our paths divide,
You’re carved into the heart inside.
So if you ever hear my name again—
Know it’s whispered on the breath of everything I am.
(Verse 2)
I watched you walk away, your freedom in your hands,
And though it broke me open, I still tried to understand.
You deserved the open sky, not the wounds you had to hide,
And I would take your suffering—
If fate would let me trade.
You said my promise shattered, that I left you in the night,
But truth is… I never stopped standing by your side.
You couldn’t see the battles I was fighting in the dark,
But every scar on my body still remembers who you are.
(Pre-Chorus)
I know forgiveness isn’t something I should dare to ask,
But if the stars allow it, if you ever look back—
I want you to see the girl who tried to make you free,
Even when the world demanded she fall to her knees.
(Chorus)
If you ever hear my name again,
Know I loved you more than wind or rain.
I never meant to lose your trust,
I never meant to let you rust
In chains that mirrored mine.
And even if our paths divide,
You’re carved into the heart inside.
So if you ever hear my name again—
Know it’s whispered on the breath of everything I am.
(Bridge)
Maybe one day in a kinder place,
You’ll look at me without the weight
Of everything we couldn’t save—
And maybe then my heart can break
For something beautiful instead of pain.
But if that day never comes…
Still, I’m proud you got away.
(Final Chorus)
If you ever hear my name again,
Let it be a memory, soft as rain.
Not the blood, not the fear,
Just the girl who held you dear
When the world fell out of line.
And even if you never stay,
I’ll love you from a world away.
So if you ever hear my name again—
Know it’s carried by the part of me
That always belonged to you.
