Verse 1
You said I was your anchor,
Then you went and jumped ship.
Left me holdin’ all the weight
Of every promise that you slipped.
And suddenly I wasn’t steady—
I was sinking in your wake,
Drowning in the memories
You didn’t bother to save.
Pre-Chorus
Yeah, it cut me deep, I won’t pretend…
Maybe I let it happen,
Guess I’m my own masochist again.
Chorus
’Cause every room I walk into,
I’m still lookin’ for you—
Like your shadow’s in the corner,
Like your voice is breakin’ through.
And it’s hell to miss somebody
Who was holdin’ me down too.
You said I was your anchor,
But you were mine…
And I can’t shake you loose.
Verse 2
Thought time would pull me to the surface,
Thought I’d breathe a little more.
But I still check the crowd for your face
Every time I walk through a door.
You were never really lifeline,
But God, I made you my home—
Now I’m wanderin’ through the shoreline
Of a love that’s long gone cold.
Pre-Chorus
I keep replaying every moment,
Every touch I can’t resist—
Wish I wasn’t wired
To hurt the way I do like this.
Chorus
’Cause every room I walk into,
I’m still lookin’ for you—
Though you left me in the deep end
With no warning, no excuse.
And it kills me that I’m missin’
Someone who held me down, not through.
You said I was your anchor,
But you were mine…
And I’m still tied to you.
Bridge
Maybe someday I’ll stop searching,
Maybe one day I’ll forget—
But right now my heart is haunted
By the places you haven’t been yet.
I keep hopin’ for a glimpse of you
My mind won’t let me quit.
Final Chorus
’Cause every room I walk into,
I’m still lookin’ for you—
Like you’re one step in the doorway,
Like you’ll show up out of the blue.
But ghosts don’t come back, honey,
And anchors don’t move.
You said I was your anchor,
But you were mine…
And I’m still drowning in you.
