You loved the chase, you loved the spark
But not the light inside the dark
You liked me wild, you liked control
But not the way I saw your soul
You said “slow down”, I said “why?”
You looked away when I looked in your eyes
You felt it shift, you felt it grow
That’s when you knew you’d lose control
Pre-Chorus
You call it timing, you call it space
But I could see it on your face
Chorus (catchy + strong)
I was too real for you, too close to the truth
Too deep, too honest, too much for you
You wanted fire without the heat
Wanted my heart but not the beat
You didn’t lose me, you lost your nerve
I gave you love you didn’t deserve
You say I changed — but here’s the view
I was just too real for you
Verse 2
Now I’m the story you twist at night
Say I was wrong to make it right
But if I meant nothing at all
Why’d you build such a high wall?
You felt safe when I stayed unsure
You felt strong when I wanted more
But the second I stood my ground
That’s when you couldn’t stick around
Pre-Chorus
You wanted easy, you wanted light
Not someone who could see through your fight
Chorus
I was too real for you, too close to the truth
Too deep, too honest, too much for you
You wanted fire without the heat
Wanted my heart but not the beat
You didn’t lose me, you lost your nerve
I gave you love you didn’t deserve
You say I changed — but here’s the view
I was just too real for you
Bridge (drop moment)
You don’t hate me
You hate the mirror
I made you feel
And that got clearer
Love wasn’t heavy
You just weren’t ready
Final Chorus (bigger energy)
I was too real for you, too strong to break
Too sure of myself for you to fake
You ran from depth, I stood my ground
Now I’m the silence in your sound
You didn’t leave me — you left the truth
And that’s the part that scared you
