Love hurts

(Verse 1 – male)

We used to trace each other names across our skin
Like you were carving somewhere safe to live
Said, “don’t be scared, I’m never leaving you”
Now every word you said just cuts in two

 Your  shadow is in my room
It lingers longer than your perfume
The bed still sinks on your side at night
Like even ghosts still hold you tight

I tried to wash you from the sheets
But pain don’t fade, it stains too deep
Now everything just smells like then
Like broken vows and “just be friends”

⸻

(Verse 1 –female)
You paint me like I didn’t care
Like I just vanished into air
But you don’t know the weight I held
Or how I broke before I fell

I stayed too long inside your storm
Tried to keep you safe and warm
But loving you felt like a war
And I was losing more and more

⸻

(Pre-Chorus – Both, overlapping)
Me: You said forever, I believed
You: Forever’s heavier than it seems
Me: You let go so easily
You: You never saw what it did to me

⸻

(Chorus – Both)
We tell two versions of goodbye
Yours was peace, and mine’s why I cry
You found a way to finally breathe
I’m still choking on what we used to be

You call it ending, I call it loss
You walked away, I paid the cost
If love was real, then tell me why
It sounds so different when we say goodbye

⸻

(Verse 2 – male)
I count the cracks across my chest
Each one a place you used to rest
You took the parts that felt like home
Now I’m just skin and empty bones

I see your name in strangers’ eyes
In passing cars, in lullabies
The world keeps moving like you’re gone
But mine got stuck where you moved on

⸻

(Verse 2 – female)
You think I sleep just fine at night
Like leaving didn’t cost my life
I hear your voice in every quiet
Regret don’t fade, it just gets private

I had to choose between two pains
Stay and drown, or break the chain
You call it leaving you behind
I call it saving what was mine

⸻

(Bridge – male, breaking)
Then why does it feel like I’m the only one bleeding?
Why am I the one still begging for meaning?
You got your closure, I got your ghost
You got to heal… I got you the most

⸻

(Bridge – male, soft, conflicted)
I never meant to be your wound
But I was dying loving you
Sometimes goodbye ain’t giving up…
It’s choosing not to self-destruct

⸻

(Final Chorus – Both, louder, emotional)
We tell two versions of goodbye
Yours makes sense, and mine asks why
You found a way to finally breathe
I’m still drowning in your memory

You call it healing, I call it scars
You found yourself, I lost who we are
If love was real, then tell me why
It feels like I’m the one who died

⸻

(Outro – fading, distant)
Male: I still love you…
Female : I know…
Both: That’s the worst part…
