(Intro — whispered overlapping voices)
“Let her go…”
“You destroyed it…”
“She’s gone…”
“No… not yet…”
⸻
(Verse 1)
I see your ghost in every room
Like broken glass beneath my shoes
Every word I said comes back
Another scar, another crack
You walked away, I watched you fade
A mess of promises I never made
Now every night’s a loaded gun
And I still taste what I’ve become
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
One voice says
“Face it, man, you lost everything”
Another screams inside of me—
⸻
(Chorus)
GIVE UP!
She ain’t coming back again
You burned the bridge with both your hands
You let her down, now let her go
BUT NO!
Something pulling through the dark
Like her name carved into my heart
I know her soul still feels this hope
Maybe I’m insane
Maybe I’m destroyed
But I can’t kill the sound of her voice
It’s not over
NOT OVER
⸻
(Verse 2)
Every memory hits like chains
Every silence amplifies pain
I replay the night she left
Like self-destruction on repeat again
And yeah I know I fucked things up
Turned real love into distrust
But if she meant nothing to me
Why do I still bleed when I breathe?
⸻
(Pre-Chorus 2)
One voice says
“She finally saw the truth in you”
But the other says
“If love was real, you fight it through”
⸻
(Chorus)
GIVE UP!
She ain’t waiting by the phone
You deserve to die alone
You had your chance, now watch it rot
BUT NO!
There’s a fire underneath
Something stronger than defeat
A pulse that tells me don’t stop
Maybe I’m broken
Maybe paranoid
But I still hear the sound of her voice
It’s not over
NOT OVER
⸻
(Bridge — heavy, half screamed / half melodic)
Maybe love don’t die that easy
Maybe scars don’t mean the end
Maybe she can still believe in
The man I could’ve been
I know I hurt her
I know I failed
But this feeling never changed
And I won’t disappear…
⸻
(Breakdown)
You say
“Walk away!”
I say
“NOT TODAY!”
You say
“She’s gone forever!”
BUT I SWEAR THIS HEART KNOWS BETTER
I WON’T LET GO
I WON’T LET GO
I WON’T LET GO
⸻
(Final Chorus — victorious / emotional)
NO!
I won’t bury what was real
This pain proves the way I feel
And I know love survives the fall
NO!
I refuse to lose the fight
Even in the darkest night
Something inside still calls
Maybe hope’s enough
Maybe love destroys
But I believe in the sound of her voice
It’s not over
NOT OVER
(Outro — fading layered vocals)
“Don’t give up…”
“She still matters…”
“It’s not over…”
“It’s not over…”
