Verse 1
We were just kids running through the daylight,
Laughing like the world was ours to write.
Your circle shined, everyone adored you,
Best friends forever — I believed it too.
But growing up meant crowded places,
New names, new dreams, unfamiliar faces.
And I felt a shadow standing close to you,
A warning whisper no one wanted to see through.
Pre-Chorus
I said, “Someday someone’s gonna cross the line,”
You said I overthink it every time.
But deep inside, I felt the cracks appear,
Watched our little world disappear…
Chorus
In another life, we’d still be side by side,
Holding on through every storm and every fight.
But in this one you drifted with the tide,
Someone new pulled you from my light.
Now I sit alone in crowded halls,
Echoes of our laughter on the walls.
Maybe we weren’t meant to survive…
Only meant to shine in another life.
Verse 2
She walked in softly like she owned the air,
Smiling sweetly, acting like she cared.
Little by little she stole your time,
Till you forgot the heartbeat next to mine.
You changed your colours just to match her sky,
Left me wondering when we said goodbye.
Not quite strangers, but not friends too,
Just watching something real come unglued.
Pre-Chorus
I kept hoping you would turn around,
See me drowning while you never made a sound.
But you followed where her footsteps led,
Leaving all our memories dead.
Chorus
In another life, we’d still be side by side,
Holding on through every storm and every fight.
But in this one you drifted with the tide,
Someone new pulled you from my light.
Now I sit alone in crowded halls,
Echoes of our laughter on the walls.
Maybe we weren’t meant to survive…
Only meant to shine in another life.
Bridge
Maybe someday you’ll think of what we had,
How every moment felt like home so bad.
But people change, and people let go,
And sometimes love just doesn’t show.
It’s not your fault you couldn’t stay…
But it still hurts watching you fade away.
Final Chorus
In another life, you’d still choose me,
We’d be the way we swore we’d always be.
But this life tore your hand away from mine,
And I learned friends don’t always last a lifetime.
So I walk alone, but I’ll be alright…
Some stories live only in another life.
New Outro
But maybe it’s the truth I fear the most—
Every bond I touch turns into a ghost.
I’m tired of hoping someone’s gonna stay,
Tired of learning love the hardest way.
So even in a world beyond this fight,
Even in a dream, even in another life…
Maybe I was never meant for company,
’Cause every heart I trust becomes a trap eventually.
