I lit a cigarette I don't even smoke
Just needed to feel the burn in my throat
Staring at walls like they're speaking your name
You left, but somehow I’m still the one to blame
Everyone says it gets better with time
But the clocks all stopped when you said goodbye
And I try to move, but my soul won’t shift
You're the wound that I can't stitch
And I keep falling back to you
Like the tide to the moon, nothing I can do
Every scar just spells your name
Every night, I lose the game
Tried to forget, but the truth cuts through—
I only fall deeper… back to you
Hanging on by nothing but a strand of hope,
Praying God tells me why we broke.
I wrote a goodbye I never sent,
Scared that you'd read it and just forget.
So I stay on the edge, one foot on the floor,
Still hoping you’ll knock on my door.
