Male voice
Intro (spoken, low, gritty)
Yeah…
Swore I’d never cross that line
But damn… here we are
⸻
Verse 1 (hip-hop leaning)
Started as a look I should’ve let burn
Knew better inside, still took that turn
Told myself it’s fine, I’ll be okay
But the heart don’t listen when it’s pullin’ that way
Late nights, secrets, phone face-down
Every word feel like we’re playin’ with flames now
Burned my peace just to feel somethin’ real
Told myself it’s worth it if the pain don’t kill
⸻
Pre-Chorus
They warned me ‘bout the cost
Yeah, I heard every word
But I still bet it all
On a love that couldn’t work
⸻
Chorus (big country hook)
It was forbidden, wasted love
But damn it felt alive
I lost myself, lost my pride
Just to keep you by my side
On and off like the headlights
On a backroad drunk on us
Yeah I knew it’d break me
But I still chose us
Forbidden wasted love
⸻
Verse 2 (country storytelling)
Tried the real thing, swore this time was different
Demons in my head kept messin’ my vision
Every fight felt heavier than the last
But we kept runnin’ back, tryna outrun the past
Long drives, meetin’ people close
Smilin’ like maybe this was meant the most
Then one damn night, words cut deep
Left my heart lyin’ in the street
⸻
Pre-Chorus 2
Said we’re done, said it’s final
But goodbye never stayed that title
⸻
Chorus
It was forbidden, wasted love
But damn it felt alive
I lost myself, lost my pride
Just to keep you by my side
On and off like the headlights
On a backroad drunk on us
Yeah I knew it’d break me
But I still chose us
Forbidden wasted love
⸻
Bridge (Morgan Wallen honesty)
Yeah maybe I’m the problem
Maybe I don’t let go
I chase what hurts the most
Like it’s all I know
I see you movin’ on, yeah I try not to mind
But you still cross my thoughts from time to time
⸻
Verse 3 (rap, BigXthePlug tone)
Tell myself I’m done but I relapse again
One memory deep, I’m all in again
Tryna heal but I don’t wanna forget
‘Cause some kinda pain still earns my respect
If lovin’ you’s wrong, I ain’t tryna be right
I’d break every rule just to relive one night
Yeah I know what it cost, yeah I know what I lost
But I’d still choose it all, swear to God, no pause
⸻
Final Chorus (big + emotional)
It was forbidden, wasted love
But it felt too damn real
Even broken hearts still feel
Even scars don’t always heal
If you ever think of me
Just know I never gave up
Yeah it ruined me slowly
But I’d still drink from that cup
Forbidden wasted love
⸻
Outro
Yeah…
Some loves ain’t meant to last
But they still leave a mark
