[Mood & Color: Heartbroken, empowering, melancholic, atmospheric, personal, reflective, late-night neo-soul vibe.] [Verse 1] You say you’re trying, but I can’t feel it All of your promises—yeah, I learned how to heal them You walk in circles ’round the truth you never say And I stay quiet just to keep the peace we never made I held my breath for you Gave you space to move But all you ever did was choose Everything but me And now I'm finally seeing Love ain’t supposed to make you bleed [Pre-Chorus] I kept shrinking just to fit inside your silence Lost myself trying not to start another riot And I know… yeah I know… This ain’t love, it’s survival [Chorus — with harmonies] Left all my thoughts unsaid I know how this goes Sorry it's getting old Think you gotta go And I'll keep it composed But I know it's just for show (Background Harmonies — soft, airy, layered): “unsaid… unsaid…” “it's getting old…” “you gotta go…” “composed… for show…” [Verse 2] Funny how love can turn into a habit Holding on just because we’re scared of what could happen You say you miss me but you never really see me I was begging for connection, you were begging just to keep me You keep your distance close Enough to pull me in But never close enough to feel Anything real So I’m walking out tonight Before I lose the rest of my light [Pre-Chorus] I kept shrinking just to keep your world from breaking But my heart’s the only thing that’s really shaking And I know… yeah I know… Something’s gotta give by morning [Chorus — full harmonies] Left all my thoughts unsaid I know how this goes Sorry it's getting old Think you gotta go And I'll keep it composed But I know it's just for show (Background Harmonies — stronger this time): “unsaid… unsaid… let it go…” “getting old… getting cold…” “you gotta go… go… go…” “composed… composed… but it’s all for show…” [Bridge — emotional, raw] I tried to stay, I tried to bend I broke myself to make it make sense You never saw the fight inside my chest So this is me… taking off what’s left I’m done with the waiting Done with the praying Done with the love that feels like breaking If you can’t love me loud Then baby, love me gone I’m already moving on [Final Chorus — biggest moment, layered harmonies] Left all my thoughts unsaid I know how this goes Sorry it's getting old Think you gotta go And I'll keep it composed But I know it's just for show (Background Harmonies — full stack): “unsaid… unsaid… finally said enough…” “getting old… getting old… I’m letting go…” “you gotta go… go… go… go…” “composed… for show… won’t fake it anymore…” [Outro] I’m taking off… I’m taking off… Leaving all the pieces on the floor Taking back the parts of me you never looked for Yeah, I’m taking off…
