Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1 – Male] Left my hoodie on your chair Phone face down I didn’t care Acting single in our bed Had you crying to the air Said I’d call I always lied Blamed the pressure Called it pride You were there through every low I got high and let it slide Told my boys that we were “cool” Treated you like you were too Watched your patience disappear Still I swore it wasn’t you Now your cup’s on someone’s shelf I’m alone here with myself Scroll your page I see you glow Hit delete But it still felt [Chorus – Both] How did we end up strangers Same house Two different hearts You were calling it forever I was tearing it apart We were sleeping in a warzone Both bleeding in the dark You broke up with my excuses I broke your trusting heart (And we loved) like it wouldn’t fall (And we ran) past every sign Every wall Now it’s silence where we used to talk Two rings in a bedside drawer [Verse 2 – Female] You said “relax You’re too much” But you flinched at every touch Every time I asked “you good?” You would laugh Then you would shut I was begging you to stay You were halfway on your way I forgave things you forgot Like the names I shouldn’t say Bought your tickets to my show You’d be late or wouldn’t go Told myself that you were tired But you’re glowing in her photo I got tired of mothering Of explaining other women’s rings Packed my tears into a case Left your key and took my name [Pre-Chorus – Female] I loved you louder than my fear (oh) You loved me quiet Then you disappeared I learned the difference It was clear Losing you was gaining me [Chorus – Both] How did we end up strangers Same house Two different hearts You were calling it forever I was tearing it apart We were sleeping in a warzone Both bleeding in the dark You broke up with my excuses I broke your trusting heart (And we loved) like it wouldn’t fall (And we ran) past every sign Every wall Now it’s silence where we used to talk Two rings in a bedside drawer [Bridge – Both] [Beat swells Darker bass Distant vocal chops] He: I’m angry at the mirror She: I’m angry that I stayed He: I miss the way you mocked my fears She: I miss the plans we made He: If timing had been kinder She: If you had been more brave Both: Maybe in another life We don’t learn love this way [Chorus – Both] How did we end up strangers Same house Two different hearts You were calling it forever I was tearing it apart We were sleeping in a warzone Both bleeding in the dark You broke up with my excuses I broke your trusting heart (And we loved) till it hurt too much (And we let) all of our scars call it done Now it’s “hope you’re good” instead of “home” Two ghosts where there once was us
