[Intro — soft, shaking breath + lonely piano notes]
Mmm…
Where did I go?
[Verse 1 — quiet, brittle]
I used to speak in colors you could understand,
Now every word feels wrong in my own hands.
I look inside the mirror searching for a truth—
But all I see is someone shaped by losing you.
[Pre-Chorus — building pressure]
You were the pulse beneath my skin,
The map of every place I’ve been…
So when you walked away,
I disappeared again…
[Chorus — breaking open]
I don’t know who I am without you.
I’m learning how to breathe in rooms you never knew.
Trying to remember what I ever stood for,
Trying not to crumble on the bedroom floor.
You took the version of me I once ran to—
And now I don’t know who I am…
Who I am without you.
[Verse 2 — heavier, trembling]
I wish I had a story where the hero wins,
Where letting go didn’t tear me from my skin.
But every memory burns through me like the proof
That I was only real when I was loved by you.
[Pre-Chorus — rising, cracks in the voice]
I used to know the sound of home,
Your words, the place I called my own…
Now silence is the loudest thing
I’ve ever known…
[Chorus — stronger, desperate]
I don’t know who I am without you.
I’m trying not to fall apart the way I used to.
Searching through the pieces of the life I outgrew,
Wondering if any of it still feels true.
’Cause you held the version of me I clung to—
And now I don’t know who I am…
Who I am without you.
[Bridge — whispered, almost collapsing]
Maybe I was wrong to give you every part…
Maybe that’s why losing you
Feels like losing my heart…
But if I don’t belong to you,
Then who do I belong to now?
Who am I allowed to be?
Tell me how…
Tell me how…
[Final Chorus — emotional explosion]
I don’t know who I am without you.
I’m terrified of learning how to stand brand new.
But if I want a future that can finally break through,
I’ve gotta find the me that isn’t built from you.
I’ll try to find the version of me that’s true—
Even if I don’t know who I am…
Who I am without you.
