[Intro]
Yeah…
I ain't mad no more
I just don't feel it anymore…
And that's the scary part.
[Verse 1]
I used to wait up for your voice
Made your happiness my only choice
Fought for us when you wouldn't try
Lost my sleep just to get it right
Now you can call, I might not care
You can leave, I won't feel it there
Funny how love can slowly change
Same two people, but not the same
I gave you pieces you ignored
Reached for you, you pulled away more
So I stopped reaching, stopped the fight
Stopped trying to make it right
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna argue
Don't wanna prove my love
Don't wanna explain
Why I ain't enough
Something in me changed
And I can't go back
You still got my body here
But my heart checked out
[Chorus]
I'm checked out, checked out
Still here, but I ain't here now
Say what you want to say
You can't make me feel that way
I'm checked out, checked out
No more tears left now
I loved you till I had nothing left
Now I'm choosing me instead
Don't mistake silence for forgiveness
Or staying for commitment
I'm not leaving in a fight
I'm leaving 'cause I see it right
I'm checked out…
Yeah, I'm checked out.
[Verse 2]
I don't check your phone anymore
Don't ask where you've been before
You come home late, I don't care
That's how I know there's nothing there
Your distance used to break me down
Now it just don't weigh me down
You thought I'd stay where you left me
But I'm not who you used to see
I got tired of being blamed
Tired of loving through the pain
Tired of giving all I had
While you never looked back
[Pre-Chorus]
Something in me changed
And I can't go back
You still got my body here
But my heart checked out
[Chorus]
I'm checked out, checked out
Still here, but I ain't here now
Say what you want to say
You can't make me feel that way
I'm checked out, checked out
No more tears left now
I loved you till I had nothing left
Now I'm choosing me instead
[Bridge – stripped down]
I checked out when I stopped explaining
Stopped fighting, stopped complaining
When your touch didn't feel the same
When I stopped taking the blame
Somewhere between promises and pain
I realized nothing would change
And the truth I had to face…
Was I was lonely in this place
[Vocal Breakdown]
Ooooh…
I'm not angry…
I'm just done.
Done trying…
Done crying…
Done asking for love
That never showed up
I'm checked out…
Yeah… I'm checked out…
[Final Chorus – BIG VOCALS]
I'm checked out, checked out
Still here, but I ain't here now
Say what you want to say
You can't make me feel that way
I'm checked out, checked out
No more tears left now
I loved you till I had nothing left
Now I'm choosing me instead
Don't mistake silence for forgiveness
Or staying for commitment
I'm not leaving in a fight
I'm leaving 'cause I see it right
[Outro]
If I feel different now…
It's 'cause I had to be.
If you miss who I was…
You loved him out of me.
I ain't checked out of love…
I'm checked out of us.
