Verse 1:
I never said that I was perfect
I’m not the sky without the storm
Not the sea without its waves
Just a soul once torn apart
Gathering the pieces, I brought them to you
Pre-Chorus:
Not to be your burden
Only so you’d see
This heart of mine is fragile glass
That shatters with a trembling touch
Chorus:
If you ever get tired of my silence
And find the pain behind my smile
I won’t ask your heart to stay
Inside my world of fleeting shadows
But if one day I turn to dust
Hold my shadow, even for a while
Let my name still breathe, quietly
Between your softest prayers at night
Verse 2:
I only ever wanted you happy
Even if joy means without me
But if the storm begins to rise in your chest
And your heart longs to sail away from mine
Bridge:
Then whisper, gently, honestly
That I’m no longer the home you seek
I’ll let the waves take you from me
Just promise you’ll go… without a scar
Chorus (Reprise):
If you ever get tired of my silence
And find the pain behind my smile
I won’t ask your heart to stay
Inside my world of fleeting shadows
But if one day I turn to dust
Hold my shadow, even for a while
Let my name still breathe, quietly
Between your softest prayers at night
Outro:
I’ll weave my sails from patience
And build my boat from grace
Not to chase you—
But to watch you drift away… without regret
