**Verse I**
You pass me like we never spoke
Like I wasn’t there when you were low
No “what’s up,” no second glance
Just history you chose to ghost

We used to talk like it was permanent
Like nothing could split the seams
Now I’m a name you don’t acknowledge
In places we used to be

**Pre-Chorus**
I didn’t fade
You stopped answering

**Chorus (Angry, restrained)**
YOU DON’T SAY HELLO
YOU DON’T SAY A WORD
YOU LOOK RIGHT THROUGH ME
LIKE I’M SOMEONE YOU’VE NEVER HEARD
I’M STILL STANDING HERE
WHERE WE LEFT IT ALL
BUT YOU WALK PAST ME
LIKE I NEVER MATTERED AT ALL

**Verse II**
You’ve got time for everyone else
Got plans every other night
But when it’s me
Suddenly you don’t have time

I carried you through the worst of it
Never asked for anything back
Now you can’t even meet my eyes
Like loyalty was a fucking act

**Pre-Chorus (Tight, bitter)**
You didn’t drift away
You chose not to stay

**Chorus (Heavier)**
YOU DON’T SAY HELLO
LIKE WE DIDN’T SHARE YEARS
LIKE I WASN’T THERE
WHEN YOU FELL APART IN TEARS
YOU ERASED ME QUIET
SO YOU COULD SLEEP AT NIGHT
AND LEFT ME ALONE
WITH THE VERSION OF YOU I FOUGHT FOR

**Bridge (Shift — anger hardens)**
I waited for a reason
I waited for the truth
But silence is an answer
And I finally heard you

**Break (Low, final)**
I get it now

---

**Verse III (Cold aftermath)**
So I stopped reaching
Stopped checking my phone
Stopped explaining myself
To people who never came close

No goodbye message
No final say
I didn’t make a scene
I just walked away

**Final Chorus (Cold, decisive)**
I CUT YOU OFF
WITHOUT A SOUND
NO EXPLANATION
NO TURNING AROUND
I TOOK MY NAME
OUT OF YOUR MOUTH
AND LET YOU WONDER
WHAT HAPPENED NOW

YOU DON’T GET CLOSURE
YOU DON’T GET ME
YOU DON’T GET TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT YOU LOST
YOU TAUGHT ME SILENCE
SO I GAVE IT BACK
AND I DON’T FEEL BAD ABOUT IT

**Outro (Quiet, resolved)**
If you notice I’m gone
Good

If you don’t
That’s the point

I didn’t disappear
I just stopped showing up
For people
Who never said hello
