[Instrumental intro] [Intro – Indie Pop, Light Guitar, Soft Vocals] I sent a message you never opened Three dots, then nothing, like you were frozen It’s been three months and one long year Funny how silence can sound so clear [Verse – Add Lo-Fi Drums, Keep it Intimate] I passed our place just last week Your light was off, or maybe weak They said you moved, you found “peace” I still rehearse the lines you never let me speak [Build – Power Ballad, Add Piano + Strings, Emotional Male Vocals] I would’ve stayed, if you had asked But I was always stuck in your past You chased the version that played it cool I broke my own heart playing your rules [Chorus – Pop Rock, Mid Tempo, Full Band + Vocal Power] So here’s to the nights I stayed awake Wrote your name in every damn mistake Now I’m loud, and I’m proud, And I won’t wait for ghosts to come around [Bridge – Dance Pop, Tempo Up, Bright Synths + Female Harmonies] [Add Electronic Groove, Club Feel] I wear your memory like cheap perfume Fades fast but lingers in the room New shoes, new me, new scene I left your world and wiped it clean [Finale – Acoustic R&B, Slow Tempo, Soulful Vocals] [Strip Back – Guitar + Rhodes + Subtle Vocals] Now I read my own name out loud And it finally feels like mine I was always worth the answer Just needed to stop hitting “retry”
