(Verse 1) I know everything, but your love still drags me down, A lucid spiral, where I can’t touch the ground. I begged you for a reason to stay, to believe, But all you ever gave were lies to deceive. You played your role so perfectly, tore me apart, Whispered I was too much, as you broke my heart. What was I holding onto? Was it love, was it pain? Now I’m left with nothing but the weight of your name. (Pre-Chorus) You say you’re not the kind to say “I love you,” But with her, it’s so easy—your words cut through. Sweet nothings and promises you’d never make to me, Now I see it all, the truth’s a bitter melody. (Chorus) And I’m falling awake, drowning in the ache, Every smile you gave her feels like a mistake. You wrote me songs, but shared them in her arms, I’m breaking apart in the shadow of your charm. (Verse 2) You told her stories that were meant for us alone, Used my inspiration to build her a home. You said no future plans, but they were just lies, You’re designing her dreams while mine slowly die. I see the difference, I’ve always been your “maybe,” While she’s the “forever” that you hold so safely. For her, there’s patience, love, and sacrifice, For me, only distance and a cold, sharp device. (Pre-Chorus) She gets your kindness, your time, your every move, I get your silence and your cruel disapprove. You blame me for the chaos, for holding too tight, But I only wanted love; now I’m losing this fight. (Chorus) And I’m falling awake, drowning in the ache, Every smile you gave her feels like a mistake. You wrote me songs, but shared them in her arms, I’m breaking apart in the shadow of your charm. (Bridge) All the words you left unspoken, Were the chains that kept me broken. You made her your muse, your light, your escape, While I stayed in the dark, bound by the weight. She’s the dream you crave, I’m just the memory, Of a love you destroyed with your cruelty. And I see it now, the truth I tried to ignore, I’m the prison, she’s the open door. (Chorus) And I’m falling awake, drowning in the ache, Every smile you gave her feels like a mistake. You wrote me songs, but shared them in her arms, I’m breaking apart in the shadow of your charm. (Outro) How do I let go? How do I escape? When every breath I take feels like a blade. You’ve won her heart, left me shattered and torn, I’ll leave you both, but I won’t mourn. This is falling awake—this is goodbye. I’ll break free of this love, or I’ll die trying to fly.
