[Verse 1 – Bare piano, quiet vocals trembling]
I still remember the taste of your name,
How it burned my tongue like guilt and flame.
You said we were broken, but I called it fate,
Now I’m drowning in the mess we made.
I gave you every sleepless night,
You gave me silence dressed as light.
And I believed you — God, I believed you,
When you said love was something we’d both outgrew.
[Pre-Chorus – Low synth heartbeat]
I begged you to see the man I became,
But you looked right through me, untouched by the pain.
[Chorus – Massive emotional surge, echoing clean vocals]
You said it wasn’t love, just two lonely souls,
Pretending the cracks could make us whole.
Now your letter bleeds inside my chest,
Each word a ghost that won’t find rest.
You said you loved me — then turned your back,
And left the knife…
Still lodged in my back.
[Verse 2 – Clean guitar, whispered tone]
I tried to heal, I tried to stay,
But your voice became the decay.
You wanted control, I wanted peace,
But you fed on the chaos that never ceased.
Even when I learned to breathe again,
You wrapped my lungs in your name.
You left me with this quiet ache —
A pulse that trembles, a heart that breaks.
[Pre-Chorus – Drums building slowly]
And still I read the note you wrote,
Each line a noose around my throat.
[Chorus – Higher, raw, almost pleading]
You said it wasn’t love, just two lonely souls,
But I carved my truth into those holes.
Now the echoes shake my fragile bones,
Your ghost still sings in my broken home.
You said you loved me — and it feels like that,
Was the cruelest lie… you ever spat.
[Bridge – Whispered confession → scream]
(Whispered)
You never held me, you held control,
You drained my fire, you took my soul.
I loved you more than you’ll ever know…
(Scream breaking)
And that’s what hurts the most.
[Breakdown – slow, melodic distortion swelling like waves]
You were the wound I couldn’t close,
The poison I drank just to feel close.
I’ve torn you out, but the scar still screams,
You’re the shadow that haunts my dreams.
[Final Chorus – Tear-filled crescendo, echoing piano returns]
You said it wasn’t love, just two lonely souls,
But I still see your face when the night unfolds.
Your note still burns through my shaking hands,
Your ghost still whispers where I stand.
You said you loved me — and I believed that lie,
Now I’m learning how to say goodbye.
[Outro – Piano + soft strings, nearly whispered]
Things I remember about you…
Regret, pain, sorrow… just a few.
But tonight I let the memory die,
And with it, the part of me that still asks why.
(soft inhale)
Goodbye.
