[Female Vocal]
[Verse 1]
You knew my name before I spoke it
Traced my steps like sacred lines
Every shadow felt you breathing
Like you lived between my blinds
You memorized my quiet habits
Counted freckles on my skin
I should’ve been afraid of you
But I let you in
[Pre-Chorus]
You were a whisper in the drywall
A prayer I didn’t mean to make
Every warning sign was calling
But I loved the way you stayed
[Chorus]
You watched me sleeping, didn’t you?
Counted every fragile breath
Turned my fear into devotion
Turned your hunger into flesh
Now you’re tangled in my bloodstream
Like a sin I can’t undo
If this is what it means to be loved
Then I’ll disappear in you
[Verse 2]
You kept my pictures in your pocket
Built a shrine I never saw
Every “coincidence” between us
Was you bending every law
Now your hands don’t feel like strangers
Now your voice lives in my head
I don’t know where you are ending
Or where I begin instead
[Pre-Chorus]
You were a ghost behind my mirror
Now you’re standing in my light
I should run the other direction
But I crave you every night
[Chorus]
You watched me sleeping, didn’t you?
Learned the rhythm of my dreams
Turned obsession into worship
Turned control into a need
Now you’re living in my heartbeat
Every pulse belongs to you
If this is what it means to be loved
Then I’ll disappear in you
[Bridge – soft, haunting, almost whispered]
Say my name like you own it
Like I was always yours
Lock every door behind me
I don’t want out anymore
Was I chosen or just taken?
Does it matter in the end?
If your love is my undoing
I would do it all again
[Breakdown – heavy, emotional]
You don’t have to hide now
I see you everywhere
In the silence, in the ceiling
In the fingers through my hair
[Final Chorus – big, emotional, layered vocals]
You watched me sleeping, didn’t you?
Now I’m begging you to stay
Turned my terror into longing
Turned the night into your place
Now I’m begging for your presence
Like I need you just to breathe
If this is what it means to be loved
Then don’t you ever leave
[Outro – quiet, eerie]
You were never in the shadows
You were always part of me
