Verse
I don’t know why I begged you to stay
Like leaving was the end of me
I rearranged my whole existence
Just to keep your gravity
I learned how to soften my truth
So it wouldn’t make you tense
I kept calling it compromise
While losing all my sense
Pre-Chorus
You said “this is just how love feels”
Like pain was part of the deal
But something in me stayed awake
And knew this wasn’t real
Chorus
I won’t miss you the way I thought I would
I won’t break like I swore I might
Some endings don’t feel like losing
They feel like getting your life
I won’t miss you, no not the way I should
No silence tearing me down
I’m breathing easier without you
Can you hear the sound
Verse
I mistook control for safety
Confused your voice for my own
Every doubt I had about myself
You planted and called it growth
I was shrinking just to fit you
Calling it “being kind”
I didn’t lose you when you left
I found what you took in time
Pre-Chorus
I don’t believe in love that threatens
I don’t believe in fear
I believe in what I became
The moment you weren’t here
Chorus
I won’t miss you the way I thought I would
I won’t break like I swore I might
Some endings don’t feel like losing
They feel like getting your life
I won’t miss you, no not the way I should
No silence tearing me down
I’m breathing easier without you
Can you hear the sound
Bridge
Call it love, call it timing
Call it whatever you need
But I was trained to mistake your approval
For something I should bleed
I didn’t fall apart when you left me
I woke up in the truth
It wasn’t fate I was afraid of
It was life without you
Final Chorus
I won’t miss you the way I thought I would
I won’t fade when your name is gone
Some freedom doesn’t feel like flying
It feels like standing strong
I won’t miss you, no not the way I should
No echo dragging me down
I’m still here — still clear
Still making sound
Outro
It wasn’t love
(It wasn’t love)
Just was survival
(Only survival)
And I don’t live like that now
( dont love like that)
I am victorious
victorious
I am victorious
Now
