🎸 "Better Left Unsaid" [(Rewritten Full Version)]
[(Bluesy Rock Ballad)]
[Intro – Spoken, low and slow]
It only takes one word to burn it all down...
And I lit the match.
---
[Verse 1]
We were walking on eggshells, tightrope minds,
One wrong glance, and we crossed the line.
You said, “Don’t,” I said, “Why not?”
That fuse was lit, and I forgot what we got.
---
[Verse 2]
Said too much and the room called fire,
Tempers flying in a rage, rising higher.
Truth came out like a shotgun blast,
Now love’s just smoke in the aftermath.
---
[Chorus]
Some things are better left unsaid,
Like lightning bolts dancing overhead.
One bad spark, now it’s too late—
We carved our pain into the hands of fate.
Wish I’d bit my tongue instead…
Some things are better left unsaid.
---
[Verse 3]
The air was thick, heavy with blame,
And silence begged us to walk away.
But pride is loud when the heart feels bruised,
And we both swung words like we had nothing to lose.
---
[Bridge – Spoken/Sung mix]
It wasn’t the truth that broke us apart—
It was the fire behind the words,
The way they ripped through your heart
And left mine scarred in return.
---
[Verse 4]
Now the dust has settled, but I’m still scorched,
Alone in the ruins of a love once forged.
If I could rewind just one page—
I’d whisper instead of unleash that rage.
---
[Chorus – Repeat, with full power]
Yeah, some things are better left unsaid,
Like poison thoughts that echo in your head.
One wrong word, and bridges blaze—
We watched forever go up in flames.
Wish I’d held it back instead...
Some things are better left unsaid.
---
[Outro – soft, fading out]
Now the echoes haunt this hollow bed...
Some things...
Some things are better left unsaid.

Would you like me to suggest guitar tone, tempo, or instrumentation next? Or want to brainstorm a follow-up song from the other person’s point of view—maybe called “All I Heard Was Fire” or “Smoke from Your Words”?
