Verse 1 – Her (hurt, controlled) I miss you… Not just your name lighting up my phone But the way you said “forever” Like you knew we’d make it home Now every room feels different Like love just packed and left ⸻ Verse 2 – Him (defensive, layered with guilt) You think I left you careless Like I didn’t feel it too Like one bad night erased Everything we built was true But loving you was never Something I regret ⸻ Pre-Chorus – Overlapping Her: One bad day, one bad fight Him: It wasn’t just that night Her: You let go so easy Him: I was barely holding tight ⸻ Chorus – Collision Her (full voice): I don’t want to start over! I don’t want somebody new! I don’t wanna learn another heart The way I learned you! Him (cutting through): It wasn’t that I didn’t love you! It wasn’t someone new! I was drowning in forever And didn’t know what to do! ⸻ Verse 3 – Her (angrier) Don’t tell me it was pressure Don’t tell me it was fear You were holding my whole future Then you disappeared ⸻ Verse 4 – Him (raw) You wanted us unshaken I felt the cracks beneath I was terrified of failing Everything you saw in me ⸻ Pre-Chorus – Rapid Fire Her: Love doesn’t leave without a reason Him: Fear can look just like goodbye Her: So what got you so scared? Him (shouting): Loving you meant I had to try! ⸻ BRIDGE – Brutal Truth (Music drops. Just piano. Almost spoken.) Her: Did you ever really see a life with me… Or was I just the right now? Him (stung): How can you say that? Her: Because forever doesn’t run The second it gets loud. Him: You think I wanted silence? You think I wanted space? I left because I felt myself Starting to lose my place. Her (voice breaking): I was building something steady. Him: And I was scared I’d tear it down. Her: You didn’t give me the chance to stay. Him (quiet, devastating): I didn’t think I deserved to. (Silence.) ⸻ Final Chorus – Not Explosive… Fractured Her (softer now): I don’t want to start over… Him: I don’t want to lose you… Her: I don’t want someone else… Him: I just don’t know how to choose you… Together (not belting — aching): We don’t want a different future We don’t want a clean slate But maybe wanting isn’t enough When love is tangled in afraid ⸻ Uncertain Outro – No Resolution Her (almost whisper): If I reach for you now… Him: I don’t know if I’d stay… Her: If you asked me to fight… Him: I don’t know if I’m brave… (Long pause. No music.) Together — barely audible: We still love each other… (Beat.) But maybe that’s not the same As knowing how
