[Intro – airy, almost whispered]
🎵
Yeah…
I don’t even know what I’m runnin’ from no more…
I just know I don’t wanna feel it
[Verse 1] (soft, conversational)
🎵
I done loved a few, yeah I gave ’em pieces
Every time I swore that I meant it
Cut ’em off clean, actin’ like I’m decent
But I still carry what we invented
Different faces, same late conversations
Same “you up?” at 2am
I be chasin’ somethin’ I can’t name
Just to feel it… then lose it again
[Pre-Chorus] (melody starts to float)
🎵
I learn somethin’ new from every goodbye
Still don’t know how to say it right
I’m a lover girl but I move lowkey
’Cause they don’t get all of me
[Chorus] (smooth, emotional hook)
🎵
I been chasin’ temporary highs
Tryna fill the space you left behind
Touchin’ on somebody just to feel alive
But it fade every time
I got a stone cold mind, fragile heart
Play it smart but I fall too hard
By the end of the night, it’s just me and my scars
Chasin’ temporary highs
[Verse 2] (a little more attitude, still soft)
🎵
I don’t give it up easy, gotta earn me
Yeah I love deep, that’s my curse, see
If I let you in, you get all of me
But you gotta prove you deserve me
I’m loyal to a fault, I admit it
I be ridin’ even when it’s twisted
And I hate that I still reminisce
On the ones that I know I’m done with
[Pre-Chorus]
🎵
I block it out, don’t sit in the pain
Replace the love, different name
But it’s all just a temporary fix
And I’m tired of this
[Chorus] (fuller, layered vocals)
🎵
I been chasin’ temporary highs
Tryna fill the space you left behind
Touchin’ on somebody just to feel alive
But it fade every time
I got a stone cold mind, fragile heart
Play it smart but I fall too hard
By the end of the night, it’s just me and my scars
Chasin’ temporary highs
[Bridge] (stripped down, raw truth moment)
🎵
Maybe I need me… more than I need love
Maybe I been pourin’ from an empty cup
Tryna find peace in somebody else’s arms
While I’m fallin’ apart
I don’t wanna run no more
Don’t wanna numb no more
Gotta face what I’ve been hidin’ from
[Final Chorus] (emotional but empowered)
🎵
I been chasin’ temporary highs
But I’m done livin’ half-alive
Ain’t no one else gonna heal what’s inside
I gotta choose me this time
Stone cold mind, but I’m soft inside
I been hurt but I’m still that light
And maybe one day I’ll be alright
When I stop chasin’ temporary highs
