Best For You

[Verse 1]
You stitched my edges
Held my shaking hands
Called it “just timing”
I don’t understand
You say you’re drowning
So you’re cutting ties
But you’re the one who
Taught me how to rise
[Pre-Chorus]
If peace is walking
I’ll crawl right next to you
If healing hurts you
I’ll learn to hurt that way too
[Chorus]
You made me feel whole
Now you’re asking me to break
Erase every trace like we’re some kind of mistake
You say it’s the cure
That you’re doing what you have to do
I want what’s best for you
But I’d change everything for you
[Verse 2]
You keep your voice flat
So it doesn’t shake
Say
“Don’t make this harder
Than it has to take”
You talk like I’m poison
You swallowed too fast
But you were the first thing
That ever really lasted
[Pre-Chorus]
If distance saves you
I’ll learn to love the space
If leaving frees you
I’ll memorize your face
[Chorus]
You made me feel whole
Now you’re asking me to break
Erase every trace like we’re some kind of mistake
You say it’s the cure
That you’re doing what you have to do
I want what’s best for you
But I’d change everything for you
[Bridge]
If you need a villain
I’ll take the blame (take the blame)
If you need a ghost
I’ll fade from your frame (fade away)
But don’t you dare think
You were just a phase
You were the fire
In my empty days (hey)
[Chorus]
You made me feel whole
Now you’re asking me to break
Erase every trace like we’re some kind of mistake
You say it’s the cure
That you’re doing what you have to do
I want what’s best for you
Yeah
I want what’s best for you
But I’d burn down every version of my life
Just to stay beside you
I’d change everything for you

rock, Emotional alt-rock ballad with male vocals, starting on intimate clean electric and soft drums, then exploding into a high-gain chorus. Verses stay tight and confessional, bass driving the pulse; chorus widens with double-tracked vocals and big crash hits. Bridge pulls back to near-whisper and then slams into a final, cathartic hook.
