[Verse 1] I started small Cropped myself out of photos Unlinked my name from things I'd written Left conversations mid-sentence Let the silence take them People noticed at first Then they didn't That's how erasure works Not all at once Just a slow fade Like a photo in the sun First you lose the edges Then the face Then nobody remembers Who was standing there [Pre-Chorus] Gone, gone, gone Lighter every day Gone, gone, gone Nobody looks up [Chorus] I erased myself on purpose Cut every thread that held me here Not because I wanted to disappear But because I wanted to see Who would come looking Who would come looking Who would come looking Nobody did Nobody did [Verse 2] Room full of people Who used to know my name I walked in And not one head turned Someone asked if I was new here I said yes That's the cleanest lie I ever told The only thing I kept Was a voicemail Thirty-two seconds Of someone saying my name Like it mattered Like I was real I play it every night Before I sleep Just to hear it spoken aloud By someone who isn't me [Chorus] I erased myself on purpose Cut every thread that held me here Not because I wanted to disappear But because I wanted to see Who would come looking Who would come looking Who would come looking Nobody did Nobody did [Bridge] This isn't hiding Hiding is afraid Of being found I was begging To be found I left one voicemail One name One thread And I waited And I waited And the room stayed full And the phone stayed silent And that told me everything That told me everything [Outro] Play it again Thirty-two seconds That's the only proof I existed Play it again Play it again Gone
