Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Missed my birthday
You forgot my name
Every time I called
You let it ring
Then fade
I learned to walk it off
Laugh it off
Talk it down
Taught myself to be tough
While you were out of town
[Chorus]
You were never there for me
So why should I be there for you?
You only see me when you need me
When you're bleeding
When you're bruised
I built a life from all the pieces
That you dropped and never used
You were never there for me
So why should I be there for you? (why should I?)
[Verse 2]
You love a good excuse
Always "busy"
Always gone
Say you hate the distance
But you drew it all along
Now you're at my door
Tears on your pretty face
Funny how you found me
When you ran out of escape
[Chorus]
You were never there for me
So why should I be there for you?
You only see me when you need me
When you're bleeding
When you're bruised
I built a life from all the pieces
That you dropped and never used
You were never there for me
So why should I be there for you?
[Bridge]
I rewound every moment
Trying to find what I did wrong
But it was never me
Was it?
You were gone
You were gone
All along (yeah)
[Chorus]
You were never there for me
So why should I be there for you?
You only see me when you need me
When you're bleeding
When you're bruised
I’m not your shadow
Not your secret
Not your shield to run back to
You were never there for me
So I won’t be there for you (no, I won’t)

Style
Moody midtempo alt-pop with male vocals over a pulsing bass bed and dry drums; verses stay close and conversational with muted synth pads and picked electric guitar, chorus explodes with wide vocal stacks and a sharp snare; subtle ambient textures in the bridge, final chorus drops instruments briefly for a raw, almost a cappella hit before the band slams back in
