[Verse 1]
You walked out proudly
Your shadow on my room
Me crushed beneath your laughter
Choking on the bruise
Lost in how it all turned
Into whispers in the dark
Every fight a private
Hushed matter
Every tear a swallowed spark
[Chorus]
I take back my power
Every second that I gave to you
You can keep your sorry
And the version that you twisted into truth
I used to think forever was not enough for us two
But today
Forever would be too soon
[Verse 2]
Your name on my tongue
Used to taste like home
Now it’s just a habit
I’m learning to outgrow
You framed my breaking
Like it was something cute
But I’m done dressing up my damage
Just to make it easier for you
[Chorus]
I take back my power
Every second that I gave to you
You can keep your sorry
And the version that you twisted into truth
I used to think forever was not enough for us two
But today
Forever would be too soon
[Bridge]
You don’t get my Sunday mornings
You don’t get my favorite song
You don’t get to live forever
In the places you went wrong
You don’t get my story
As a scar shaped like your name
I’m the one who writes the ending
Watch me walk away
[Chorus]
I take back my power
Every second that I gave to you
You can keep your sorry
And the version that you twisted into truth
I used to think forever was not enough for us two
But today
Forever would be too soon
Yeah today
Forever would be too soon (too soon)
