[Verse 1]
You say you’re tired,
But you never tell me what from.
You turn your face to the window,
Like the night’s where you belong.
I try to reach for your shadow,
But it slips right through my hands—
I’m staring into the quiet,
Trying to understand.
[Pre-Chorus]
You’re here, but you’re somewhere far…
I feel the distance in your heart.
You say you’re fine—
But you’re falling apart.
[Chorus]
Where do you go when you leave me?
Even when you’re lying right here?
You close your eyes and you disappear,
And I’m still holding on to what you don’t feel.
Tell me the truth if it kills me—
Do you love me, or only the memory?
Where do you go when you leave me?
’Cause it’s not home…
It’s not me.
[Verse 2]
You used to touch me
Like I was something holy to you.
Now every kiss feels borrowed,
Like you’re scared to tell the truth.
I watch you drift through the silence,
Like a ghost I used to know—
And I’m afraid if I blink,
You’ll vanish for good this time, I know.
[Pre-Chorus]
I call your name, but it echoes out…
I feel the fear you never talk about.
You say you’re here—
But you’re fading now.
[Chorus]
Where do you go when you leave me?
Even when you’re lying right here?
You close your eyes and you disappear,
And I’m still holding on to what you don’t feel.
Tell me the truth if it kills me—
Do you love me, or only the memory?
Where do you go when you leave me?
’Cause it’s not home…
It’s not me.
[Bridge – soft, broken, drifting]
If you’re lost, you could tell me…
If you’re hurting, let me try.
I just hate that I’m the last one
To know when you say goodbye.
[Final Chorus]
Where do you go when you leave me?
Do you find a place where you feel free?
I’m trying hard just to believe—
There’s still a part of you that’s reaching back for me.
But every night, you slip deeper—
Into dreams you never let me see.
Where do you go when you leave me?
Please don’t leave me
Permanently.
