Verse 1
Saw your name on a mutual friend’s phone
Felt my stomach drop for no reason at all
Guess I’m still learning how to let go
Even after all this time and all these calls
You always knew the words to say
To make me question what I knew
Now I’m sitting in my bedroom
Trying not to rewrite you
Pre-Chorus
Maybe you’re telling everyone
How I was hard to love
Maybe you’re painting me as someone
I never really was
Chorus
I’d love to hear your side of the story
The one where you don’t leave out your mistakes
The one where I’m not the villain and you’re not the glory
The one where you admit your heart could break
But I know that’s not how it goes
You get your version, I get ghosts
And everybody hears your truth before mine
So I stay quiet one more time
Verse 2
I still remember that November
When we drove around till three AM
Talking like we’d last forever
Funny how forever always ends
Now your shadow’s in the rearview
And your fingerprints won’t fade
I keep finding little pieces
Of the mess we both made
Pre-Chorus
Maybe one day I’ll stop caring
Who’s right and who’s wrong
But tonight your memory’s louder
Than every damn song
Chorus
I’d love to hear your side of the story
The one where you don’t leave out your mistakes
The one where I’m not the villain and you’re not the glory
The one where you admit your heart could break
But I know that’s not how it goes
You get your version, I get ghosts
And everybody hears your truth before mine
So I stay quiet one more time
Bridge
Maybe the truth is somewhere in between
The things you said and what you meant
Maybe we’re both just people trying
To make sense of what we spent
Final Chorus
I’d love to hear your side of the story
But maybe I don’t need it anymore
’Cause closure never came from hearing sorry
It came from walking out the door
And now your name’s just letters on a screen
Not the whole world it used to mean
And for the first time in a while
I think I’m finally leaving you behind
