Letters I Never Sent

Verse 1:

I wrote a letter in the dark, no light,

Said, "I miss your touch, I miss those nights."

But the ink couldn’t wash away the fights,

Couldn’t erase all the wrongs, could only write.

Every word I wrote, it felt like a prayer,

But your silence hit harder than the air.

I tried to send it, but I couldn’t dare,

'Cause you won’t even read the tears I wear.

How do I say goodbye?

When I’m still haunted by your eyes.

You walked away, no goodbyes,

And left me here with a thousand lies.

Hook (Chorus):

These are the letters I never sent,

All the things I couldn’t say, every word I bent.

You never heard me, never knew my scent,

Now I’m just a ghost, faded in the end.

I wrote it down, but I never sent,

My heart heavy, no way to repent.

The words sit still, cold as cement,

These are the letters I never sent.

Verse 2:

I wrote a letter to my broken heart,

Told myself, “Girl, you gotta restart.”

But the scars were too deep, too hard to chart,

I wanted to heal, but I don’t know where to start.

There was no love left in my chest,

Just empty spaces where I laid to rest.

Said, “I’ll be fine, I’ll pass this test,”

But I was fooling myself, acting like I’m blessed.

I never sent it, didn’t want the pity,

I buried the truth deep in this city.

But the lie’s like a knife, sharp and gritty,

I’m still trying to recover from this self-inflicted wound — it’s pretty.

Hook (Chorus):

These are the letters I never sent,

All the things I couldn’t say, every word I bent.

You never heard me, never knew my scent,

Now I’m just a ghost, faded in the end.

I wrote it down, but I never sent,

My heart heavy, no way to repent.

The words sit still, cold as cement,

These are the letters I never sent.

Verse 3:

Wrote a letter to my mom, told her I’m scared,

Told her I’m sorry, like she hasn’t already cared.

But I never sent it, 'cause she’s been there,

Always picking up the pieces I dared not repair.

I said, “I’m afraid I’m running out of time,”

But the clock keeps ticking, can’t press rewind.

I’m drowning in feelings, trying to find

A way to fix this heart that’s never aligned.

I never wanted to be her burden,

But I’m breaking apart in this version.

She never saw the cracks, the distortion,

But every letter’s a cry, hidden in proportion.

Bridge (Emotional Breakdown):

Sometimes I wish I could say it all…

Write it out loud, no matter how small…

But my hands shake, the pen won’t fall,

'Cause I’m scared to face the truth of it all.

I’m still writing these letters to the night,

To the parts of me I can’t get right.

To the battles I lost, the fading light,

But I never sent it, I keep it tight.

Verse 4:

Wrote a letter to the girl I used to be,

Told her, “Don’t lose yourself, just wait and see.”

But she didn’t listen, she ran from me,

Got lost in the mess of what she was supposed to be.

Told her, “It’s okay to cry, it’s okay to scream,”

But I left her alone, chasing some dream.

Now I’m stuck here, torn at the seams,

Wondering if I’ll ever find her again, or was she just a fleeting
