[Verse 1] You say you love me, but your voice is stone Like a borrowed line you don't own Your eyes drift far when you hold me close Like I’m the ghost you fear the most [Pre-Chorus] Don’t write me sonnets, don’t act so sweet If love’s a lie between your teeth [Chorus] Say you love me — but you don’t Say you need me — but you won’t You touch like it’s a role you play You kiss just to look away Say you love me — but it’s cold And your silence tells me all I need to know [Verse 2] You quote the stars, but you can’t see mine Just shadows dancing through the line You paint your words in sugar tones But leave me aching in my bones [Pre-Chorus] If this is love, then let it break I'd rather feel the real heartache [Chorus] Say you love me — but you don’t Say you need me — but you won’t You swear like you're reciting fate But everything you give feels fake Say you love me — but it’s cold And your silence tells me all I need to know [Bridge – Spoken / Echoed Layer] You say… you love me But not with fire Not with truth Not with soul [Final Chorus – soft start, swelling end] Say you love me — but I’ve grown I don’t need what you’ve never shown Say you need me — but I see You only love the thought of me Say you love me — but I know It’s not real, and it’s time to go
