Prompt / Lyrics
You kept knocking on a door I never opened, Hoping I’d light a spark I never meant to save for you. I kept handing out my matches to strangers, Letting them burn bright while you stayed turning blue. You waited in the corner like a promise I forgot, While I chased every flash that wasn’t you — And I told myself you’d never move, Like you were glued to my shadow. But you finally packed up all that patience, Left the key on the table like a warning flare. And now you’re running toward someone who actually wants you, Someone who doesn’t ration out her warmth like currency. I thought you’d orbit me forever out of habit, But you cut the tether clean tonight. Guess I learned too late that silence has a price — And you’re done paying mine. I kept you on the shelf like a trophy I never earned, Dusting you off only when I needed to feel adored. You kept asking for a flame I never offered, While I lit bonfires for men who never stayed the night. You were steady as a heartbeat I ignored, A rhythm I refused to dance to — And I swore you’d never walk away, But you finally proved me wrong. You traded all my half‑truths for someone’s open door, And I can’t blame you for wanting more. Now you’re running toward someone who actually wants you, Someone who doesn’t treat affection like a chore. I thought you’d orbit me forever out of habit, But you cut the tether clean tonight. Guess I learned too late that silence has a price — And you’re done paying mine. I never meant to starve you of the things you asked for, I just never felt that hunger when I looked your way. But watching you glow in someone else’s atmosphere Hits harder than anything I ever let you say. Maybe I should’ve tried, Maybe I should’ve cared — But “maybe” doesn’t matter now you’re gone. You’re running toward someone who actually wants you, Someone who doesn’t make you beg for light. I thought you’d orbit me forever out of habit, But you cut the tether clean tonight. And I’m left staring at the space you used to fill — A vacancy I built myself.
