Verse 1: You came with a list of everything I broke, Turned every memory into evidence and smoke. Said you needed answers, said you needed space, Then three hours later you were calling my name. You wanted every damage paid in full, Said I needed fixing like I was something cruel. But underneath the anger, underneath the attack, There was something in your voice that kept pulling me back. Pre-Chorus: You called me the problem, Then asked me to stay. You said you needed distance, Then couldn’t walk away. Chorus: You still couldn’t detach from me, Even when you swore you hated everything. You wanted safety from the one who made you bleed, Wanted my arms when you couldn’t sleep. You said, “How do we connect this to reality?” Like what we had was still alive underneath. You could call me a liar, call me anything But you still couldn’t detach from me. Verse 2: You said, “I want to be held like a baby,” Then laughed like none of this could ever faze me. You wanted me to say that I loved you out loud, While everything between us was collapsing down. You talked about us like the future wasn’t dead, Said you weren’t looking for somebody else instead. Then morning came and you disappeared again, Like you could outrun everything you said at 4 AM. Pre-Chorus: You called me the problem, Then asked me to stay. You said you needed closure, Then gave yourself away. Chorus: You still couldn’t detach from me, Even when you swore you hated everything. You wanted safety from the one who made you bleed, Wanted my arms when you couldn’t sleep. You said, “How do we connect this to reality?” Like what we had was still alive underneath. You could call me a liar, call me anything But you still couldn’t detach from me. Bridge: Maybe that’s the cruelest part, You couldn’t love me without falling apart. Couldn’t forgive me, couldn’t let me go, Couldn’t trust the truth, but couldn’t leave the ghost. You wanted answers, You wanted peace, You wanted me gone Then wanted me underneath your sheets. And I don’t know which one of us Was holding on tighter, The one begging for closure Or the one begging for fire. Final Chorus: You still couldn’t detach from me, Even with the truth standing in between. You wanted something real from something built on dreams, Wanted emotional safety from the danger underneath. You said, “How do we connect this to reality?” Maybe that’s the question that destroyed you and me. You could hate me tomorrow, You could bury everything But that night, you still couldn’t detach from me.
