[Verse 1]
You took the house keys
And my last good name
Left your lipstick on the mirror
Like I’m the one to blame
You said I was too much
Then you needed more
Now you’re laughing in another room
Like I was never yours
[Pre-Chorus]
You moved fast
Like guilt don’t stick
Painted my pain
Like it was some trick
I kept the truth
You kept the spin
Now I’m here with the wreckage
Tryna breathe again
[Chorus]
Was it ever real? (was it ever real?)
Or just another game? (just another game)
You left me wide open
Then you changed your face
Was it ever real? (was it ever real?)
Tell me, say my name
‘Cause you moved on clean
And I’m still in the rain
[Verse 2]
You made a shrine
Out of being adored
Every room I walked into
You wanted one more
One more sorry
One more wound
You fed on the silence
Till the silence fed you
Now your new man’s smiling
In the frame I gave you
Same sweet speech
Same polished lie
He don’t know yet
What it costs to survive
[Pre-Chorus]
You moved fast
Like guilt don’t stick
Painted my pain
Like it was some trick
I kept the truth
You kept the spin
Now I’m here with the wreckage
Tryna breathe again
[Chorus]
Was it ever real? (was it ever real?)
Or just another game? (just another game)
You left me wide open
Then you changed your face
Was it ever real? (was it ever real?)
Tell me, say my name
‘Cause you moved on clean
And I’m still in the rain
[Bridge]
I keep your voice
On the edge of nights
Like a thorn in my chest
That still draws light
If I was your love
Why’d it feel like a test?
Why’d you take everything
And call it best?
I don’t hate you
I hate the scar
I hate how easy
It was for you to start
I’m learning the shape
Of the man you broke
And I’m saying the truth
Even if it chokes
[Chorus]
Was it ever real? (was it ever real?)
Or just another game? (just another game)
You left me wide open
Then you changed your face
Was it ever real? (was it ever real?)
Tell me, say my name
‘Cause you moved on clean
And I’m still in the rain
[Outro]
Was it ever real?
Was it ever real?
I’m still in the rain
But I’m walking out
