Verse 1]
I’m reaching out in silence,
For something I can’t hold.
A ghost that never touched me,
But somehow shaped my soul.
I’m carrying these heartaches
From a future never mine—
Just ashes of a story
That burned before its time.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don’t know why it lingers,
Like a bruise beneath my skin.
[Chorus]
’Cause I’m grieving
For a life I never lived.
For a love that never found me,
For a hope that never is.
You can’t lose what you don’t have—
But I still feel I do.
My heart keeps chasing shadows
That never wanted to.
[Post-Chorus / Vocal Cry]
Ooooh—ohhhh—uhhhh…
Ohhh, I needed you…
Uhhhh—ohhhh—why weren’t you there…
⸻
[Verse 2]
I’m wide awake at midnight,
In a bed that feels too wide.
There’s a tenderness I’m holding
For a stranger in my mind.
If soulmates are a promise,
Mine was broken from the start—
A constellation missing
From the map inside my heart.
[Pre-Chorus]
And it cuts a little deeper
When the night pulls me back in.
[Final Chorus]
So I’m grieving
For a name I’ll never know.
For a pair of hands that won’t be there
To pull me from the cold.
You can’t lose what you don’t have—
But try telling that to truth:
I was born with this soft longing,
And I was built to lose.
[Final Post-Chorus / Emotional Outro]
Ohhhh—ohhhhhh—uhhhh…
Why’d you never come to me…
Ooooh—uhhhh—ohhhh…
I’m still calling out for you…
Ohhhhh—ohhhhh—uhhhh…
(fading, breaking)
