[Intro – Bare / Breath] (piano, distant reverb, almost silence) I ain’t… I ain’t think I’d see you again… Not like this… Not… this close… [Verse 1 – Controlled] You walked in like time ain’t move, Same air, same room… same truth. I felt it before I looked your way, Like my chest knew your name. Ain’t nothin’ changed… but everything did, You still got that pull I can’t resist. I tried to breathe, play it cool, stay still— But my silence louder than my will. [Pre-Hook – Tension] And I don’t know… If I should speak or let it go… ’Cause one word might break what I rebuilt… [Hook – First Lift] Now we face to face once more… Standing where we broke before… I don’t know what this is now… But I still feel you somehow… Tell me, do it still exist? Or we just ghosts that reminisce… If I reach, would you resist… Or fall back into this… [Verse 2 – Deeper Cut] Your eyes don’t lie, they just hide it better, Same storm, just held together. You say “you good,” but your voice betray, Every word got something it won’t say. I remember nights you couldn’t sleep, How you’d lay there, holding me. Now we strangers with a history, Tryna act like it don’t mean a thing. [Hook – Stronger] Now we face to face once more… Standing where we broke before… I don’t know what this is now… But I still feel you somehow… Tell me, do it still exist? Or we just ghosts that reminisce… If I reach, would you resist… Or fall back into this… [Bridge – Break Point] (piano drops… almost spoken, voice cracking) If I touch you… Is it wrong… or just late? If you love me… Did it fade… or just wait? ’Cause I been livin’ like you gone for good… But you right here… And I don’t know what to do with that… [Final Hook – Explosion] (full vocals, layered harmonies, strings swell) Now we face to face once more— And I can’t pretend no more! Every scar still lead to you, Every lie I told ain’t true! Tell me, do it still exist?! ’Cause I still feel it in my chest! If I reach—don’t let me miss… Don’t let me lose you… twice like this… [Outro – Collapse] (stripped back to piano, soft, defeated) …we ain’t strangers… We just scared… To remember… We still there…
