Verse 1
It started quiet, little things
Laughs I wasn’t standing in
Group chats lighting up too fast
Inside jokes I didn’t have
I smiled, said “I’m fine, it’s cool”
But my chest felt like it knew
Something’s changing, something’s wrong
And I don’t know where I belong
Pre-Chorus
I watched you drift, or maybe I
Just stood too still and let time fly
Every step you took away
I blamed myself, but didn’t say
Chorus
I thought you were leaving me
Every glance felt like proof to see
I got scared and I held too tight
Turned small doubts into sleepless nights
I don’t think you meant to hurt me
I just didn’t know how to breathe
If I’m being honest now
Maybe it was me
Verse 2
Then there was Sagan, then there was you
And I didn’t know what to do
I told myself I didn’t care
But jealousy was everywhere
I compared, I overthought
Built up walls you never saw
I made stories in my head
That you never, ever said
Pre-Chorus
I saw shadows where there was light
Turned “they’re happy” into a fight
Not with you, but in my brain
Where fear sounds just like pain
Chorus
I thought you were leaving me
Every silence felt so loud to me
I got scared and I held too tight
Turned small doubts into sleepless nights
I don’t think you meant to hurt me
I just didn’t know how to breathe
If I’m being honest now
Maybe it was me
Bridge
I didn’t mean to make it heavy
Didn’t mean to push or pull
I just wanted to feel steady
Didn’t know I broke the rule
Of trusting love, of letting be
Of knowing you’d still choose me
Chorus (soft)
I thought you were leaving me
But maybe you were just living free
And I was learning way too late
That fear can change the shape of faith
It wasn’t all your fault
And I won’t say it’s all my blame
But I’m owning my reflection
In this cracked-up picture frame
Outro
So this is me, still learning how
To quiet storms inside me now
If we’re okay or if we’re not
I’ll hold the truth I never fought
I cared too much, I felt too deep
I loved in ways I couldn’t keep
And if I’m brave enough to say
I’m growing… even from the pain
