[Verse 1]
You looked me in the eyes today,
And dropped a match into my chest.
One sentence turned the air to ash,
And burned what little hope was left.
I asked a question I shouldn’t have,
You answered honest, nothing spared.
Now every memory’s got a shadow…
Wondering if you were ever really there.
[Pre-Chorus]
I wasn’t asking to be perfect.
I wasn’t asking to compare.
I just never thought I’d hear you say
You’d rather find it somewhere else.
[Chorus]
How do I live with knowing
You’d rather chase a stranger’s touch
Than fight for something built with us?
How do I carry that around
Without it breaking every mirror now?
You didn’t just break my heart that day…
You made me question all my worth.
The cruelest thing wasn’t losing you…
It was learning I was worth less than a stranger.
[Verse 2]
You say it wasn’t all the reason.
You say I heard it all wrong.
But words don’t stop where speakers leave…
They echo long after they’re gone.
I would’ve learned you.
I would’ve listened.
I would’ve stayed until we got it right.
You found an easier answer
In somebody you met for one night.
[Bridge]
You called it pressure.
I called it giving up.
You called it chemistry.
I called it not being enough.
If something’s broken, you repair it.
You don’t throw it out for someone new.
So don’t ask why this still destroys me…
You told me exactly what I’d lost to.
[Final Chorus]
How do I ever trust again
When love became a place to lose?
You didn’t just leave.
You made me wonder if I was ever worth choosing.
I could survive a broken promise.
I could survive goodbye.
But knowing you’d rather reach for someone you barely knew…
Than reach for me one more time…
That’s the wound that doesn’t die.
