[Intro – low, echoey tone]
Yeah…
Can’t tell if it’s love or a lesson…
Guess I’m just runnin’ again…
Mmm… yeah…
---
[Verse 1]
I been ghostin’ you just to hide my pain,
Say I’m fine, but I drown in the rain.
You call me out, I switch up the lane,
Truth is, I’m scared to feel that again.
Every time you say “miss you,” I freeze,
Distance ain’t miles — it’s just me.
I built these walls so I don’t bleed,
But somehow you still got the key.
---
[Pre-Chorus]
I run when it’s real, yeah, I know that’s weak,
Tell lies just to guard my peace.
You love deep, but I love in retreat,
Break what I want just to feel complete.
---
[Chorus – airy, melodic flow]
Miles apart, I still see your face,
Every text feels like a chase.
I hurt you just to keep you safe,
‘Cause falling in love’s my greatest mistake.
---
[Verse 2]
City lights blur like your name in my phone,
I move place to place just to feel less alone.
Told myself I’m better off on my own,
But truth is, I just can’t go home.
Yeah, I lie, I ghost, I fade,
Act cold so my heart don’t break.
Been here before, it’s the same old fate,
Every “forever” turns to “too late.”
---
[Bridge – soft, emotional tone]
I’m sorry I vanish when you get too close,
Did bad things just to hide my soul.
You think I don’t care — I care the most,
I’m just scared of the love I broke.
---
[Chorus – final, fading out]
Miles apart, I still see your face,
Every text feels like a chase.
I hurt you just to keep you safe,
‘Cause falling in love’s my greatest mistake.
---
[Outro – whispered]
Yeah…
I’m runnin’…
But you still stay…
Somehow you still stay…
