[Verse 1]
I’ve been sleeping with the lights on
Just to chase away the dark
But every corner of this bedroom
Still remembers where you are
And I’m holding every moment
Like it’s slipping through my hands
Asking God if you still think of me
Or if you’ve already found your plan
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’m tired
Of pretending I’m not breaking
When the silence
Is the only thing that’s staying
And your words still echo softly in my ribs…
⸻
[Chorus]
You walked away but your shadow’s in the doorway,
The one that said “I’m sorry” when you couldn’t let me in
And I hate the way I miss you but I’d let you do it all again
’Cause goodbye felt like an answer when I never asked the end
No, I never asked the end
⸻
[Verse 2]
You’ve been hiding in a new girl
Like a bandage on a wound
But I wonder if she sees the parts
You never let me see of you
And I know we both were fragile
In the ways we tried to love
But you gave me every sunrise
Now I’m scared of waking up
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’m trying
To forgive the way you left me
But I’m dying
To believe you never meant it
And your hoodie’s still tangled in my bed, like you never really left…
⸻
[Chorus]
You walked away but your shadow’s in the doorway,
The one that said “I’m sorry” when you couldn’t find the words to give
And I hate the way I’m haunted by the nights we almost lived
Guess goodbye felt like a promise that you thought you had to give
But I never wanted this
⸻
[Bridge]
Tell me, baby, do you sleep at night
Or does the guilt still keep you company?
Did you love me just a little bit
Or was that only ever true for me?
I’m trying not to hate you now
But God, you made it easy…
⸻
[Breakdown – soft, whispered]
I loved you harder than I should
You ran faster than you could
But I’d still hold you if you came
Even if it hurt the same
⸻
[Final Chorus]
You walked away but your shadow’s in the doorway,
Your apology still bleeding from the place your silence lived
And I hate that I still love you but I won’t pretend I don’t
Maybe someday, you’ll remember all the things you couldn’t hold
And maybe you’ll come home.
Maybe you’ll come home.
