[Intro — filtered drums | whispered | cold] You ask me when it ended... Look at me. You really want the truth? [Instrumental Break — filtered breakbeat | distant breath] (yeah...) (mmh...) You really don't know... [Verse 1 — sparse | clipped] You kept the door half-open I kept pretending that meant stay You called me from the highway I waited up You drove away You remember little things Like they absolve you somehow The coffee going cold My shoes beside the doorway Your silence in the house [Instrumental Break — jungle fill | vocal fragments] (you remember...) (yeah...) But you don't remember me... [Filtered Pre-Drop — tension rising] I heard you changing before you heard yourself I reached for you you reached for something else Don't ask me when I disappeared I was right here. [DROP 1 — FIRE | chopped vocal] Right here... (Right here!) Right here... You knew. (You knew...) [Instrumental Jungle Break — beat cuts | whispered ad-libs] (oh...) (don't...) (you knew...) (yeah, you knew...) [Verse 2 — 2-step | restrained anger] I learned to read your shoulders before you said a word The way you'd turn your body like touching me might hurt I stopped saving stories for when you came home What was the point of telling you when you were already gone? You called it being tired I called it being left You called it needing space I called it losing breath [Instrumental Break — filtered drums | breathy ad-libs] (uh...) (keep going...) (no...) (I felt that...) [Pre-Drop — drums filtering down] And every “maybe” cut a little deeper Every “tomorrow” made me need you less You ask where all the love went? I buried it while you were sleeping next to me. [DROP 2 — HARD JUNGLE DROP] You knew | you knew (Don't lie...) Don't say you didn't know (You knew...) You knew | you knew I was letting go [Post-Drop — chopped vocal + jungle fills] Letting go... (letting go...) Go... (go...) Go... [Instrumental Break — rapid jungle fills | vocal stabs] (ah!) (yeah...) (no more...) (you knew...) (uh!) [Verse 3 — beat breaks | intimate] You remember that photograph I remember after Your arm around my waist while I was hiding all the fracture We looked so alive inside that little frame Funny how a picture can lie without changing [Build — rising] Maybe it was Tuesday. Maybe it was nothing. Maybe it was every night you made me feel like something I had to earn. I kept reaching. You kept drifting. Now you want a date for when it ended? [Beat Cut — complete silence] No. [Whisper ad-lib] (No...) It ended every time I reached and you didn't. [DROP 3 — BIGGEST JUNGLE DROP] You knew... (You knew!) You knew... (I was right here!) I was right there. (Yeah...) You just didn't reach back. [Instrumental Jungle Break — chopped breaks | aggressive ad-libs] (Why?) (Why didn't you?) (Yeah...) (I waited...) (I waited for you...) (Too late...) [Bridge — stripped | almost spoken] And that's what makes me angry. Not that you left. Not even that you changed. You made me mourn us while you were still calling me yours. [Final Build — drums returning] So don't ask me when the love disappeared. It didn't. It got tired. [Pre-Drop Ad-Libs — whispered layers] (so tired...) (yeah...) (tired of reaching...) (no more...) [FINAL DROP — EXPLOSIVE JUNGLE] I still loved you. (Still...) That's the wound. (That's the wound...) I still loved you when I stopped chasing. You knew. (You knew!) You knew. [Instrumental Break — massive jungle fill | vocal chops] (ah!) (yeah!) (you knew!) (no more!) (let me go!) [Outro — filtered break fading] Don't ask me when we ended. Ask yourself how long you watched me leave. [Final chopped vocal] You knew... (you knew...) You knew...
