Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – soft guitar] You showed up like a sunrise On a night I thought would never end Said my name like it mattered Like my heart was something you could mend And I swear when you look at me The whole world fades to gray But loving you is dangerous In a different kind of way ⸻ [Verse 1] You’re the kind of boy that people trust The kind that never learned to run from love While I’m the storm rolling through your sky The warning sign you never saw in time You laugh and say I overthink That I’m stronger than the ghosts I keep But if you knew the things I hide You wouldn’t stand so close tonight ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] You touch my hand and I forget the truth That someone like me shouldn’t love someone like you ⸻ [Chorus] If I was someone better If my heart was safe and kind I’d keep you forever And never say goodbye But you deserve a sunrise Not the shadows I’ve become So I’ll love you from a distance Even though you’re the only one ⸻ [Verse 2] You talk about forever Like it’s something we could hold Like the world won’t break our hearts Like we’ll never grow too cold You say my scars don’t scare you You say my past don’t matter now But every angel needs a halo And mine fell off somehow ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] When you pull me close I almost believe Maybe I could be the girl you see ⸻ [Chorus] If I was someone better If my heart was safe and kind I’d keep you forever And never say goodbye But you deserve a sunrise Not the shadows I’ve become So I’ll love you from a distance Even though you’re the only one ⸻ [Verse 3] Sometimes I picture summer nights Your hand tangled into mine Dancing in a parking lot Under broken neon signs And in that dream I’m fearless And I finally let you stay But reality comes crashing in And steals that world away ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Because loving me is walking on a wire And I’d rather burn alone than watch you catch my fire ⸻ [Chorus] If I was someone better If my heart was safe and kind I’d keep you forever And never say goodbye But you deserve a sunrise Not the war inside my soul So I’ll love you from a distance Even if it breaks me whole ⸻ [Bridge – quiet, emotional] Maybe in another life Where I’m not afraid to stay Where the darkness in my veins Doesn’t push your light away Maybe we’d be laughing On a porch at 3AM And every broken piece of me Would finally make some sense Maybe I’d be brave enough To let your love come through Maybe I’d believe for once That I deserve you too ⸻ [Breakdown – soft guitar] But you shine too bright for me And I’d rather lose you gently Than watch your heart bleed ⸻ [Final Chorus – big drums] If I was someone better If my heart was safe and kind I’d keep you forever And never say goodbye But you deserve a sunrise Not the storm I always bring So I’ll love you from a distance Even if it ruins everything ⸻ [Outro – soft] And if someday you forget me I’ll still whisper your name Because loving you was the one thing That never felt like pain.
