Never Regret (Duet)

O.C.F. [VERSE 1] Never regret, that’s what I said, But the truth keeps ringing in the back of my head. Every choice feels stitched with flame, With wires that burn slow, then fade, [REFRAIN] Fate keeps calling from the static— Soft, relentless, automatic. Fate’s still calling for you— But I can’t answer it too. [VERSE 2] Never regret, that’s what I claim, But I'm chained to a past that echoes your name. The stars just blink like they've seen it all, And I still flinch every time I fall. [PRE-CHORUS] They watch my steps like I’m walking on glass, Every move judged by a ghost of my past. Leashed by mistakes I can't amend, Under a weight so heavy I can't unbend. [CHORUS] Never regret— But I still do. You were the lie I built my truth through. If fate’s a flame, then let it consume— I’m ashes already, I’ll make it my tomb. Never regret— That’s what I said, But I live in the echoes inside my head. If fate’s still calling, let her ring— I’m too far gone to answer anything. [VERSE 3] Flame’s the only thing I can stare upon, When the bridges are dust and the lights are gone. I overthink til silence sings, The pain knows my name, it remembers things. [PRE-BRIDGE] Oh darling, I’m fading, Pretending I’m changing, My blood in the hands of strangers praying. [BRIDGE] I said to you, babe— Don’t look back. Love turns hollow when the sky cracks. I said to you, babe— Hold your breath. There’s peace in the quiet between life and death. [OUTRO] Never regret, that’s what I said, But the truth keeps ringing in the back of my head. Every choice feels stitched with flame, With wires that burn slow, then fade. Never regret— But I still do. You were the lie I built my truth through. If fate’s a flame, then let it consume— I’m ashes already, I’ll make it my tomb.
