[Intro] (Soft, melancholic piano playing a slow, echoing melody) (Acoustic guitar strums gently underneath) [Verse 1] I remember the air on the very first day The exact words you said, and the way you would stay Right then and there, looking deep in your eyes I knew you were home, I believed your disguise (Pace picks up slightly, bass guitar enters) You were my one, yeah, I built you a shrine Gave you my future, my heart, and my time. [Pre-Chorus] (Drums start building a marching beat) But grace isn't endless, it bleeds when it's used My patience was shattered, my kindness abused You walked out the door, left me standing in rain Now you're knocking again... [Chorus] (Full band explosion! Heavy electric guitars and driving drums) Now you want me to trust you, believe every word! Like the sting of your lies is a thing I never heard! You say that you’ve changed, yeah, you're singing it true— But this time I don't know how to come back to you! (Guitar riff cries out) No, I don't know how... to come back to you. [Verse 2] (Music drops back down, atmospheric and tense) You look in the mirror and swallow your pride Asking for faith that you hollowed inside You hand me the pieces, you beg me to glue The very same heart that you shattered in two. You say time heals it all, but you don't understand The scars that are left in the palm of my hand. [Pre-Chorus] (Drums building tension again, rising pitch) I see in your eyes that you’re feeling the pain But sunshine can't melt all the ice in my veins You walked out the door, left me drowning in blue Now you're asking me... [Chorus] (Maximum emotional intensity, soaring vocals) Now you want me to trust you, believe every word! Like the sting of your lies is a thing I never heard! You say that you’ve changed, yeah, you're singing it true— But this time I don't know how to come back to you! [Bridge] (Music strips away to just a heartbeat kick-drum and piano chords) (Vocals raw, almost spoken, cracking with emotion) Do I open the door? Or do I lock it tight? Do I run for the hills... Or give in to the fight? (Building up louder, screaming slightly) 'Cause I want to forgive! Yeah, I want you to stay! ...But you burned down the bridge and you washed it away! [Guitar Solo] (Crying, emotional, soaring electric guitar solo that mimics the pain of trying to trust someone again) [Final Chorus] (Explosive, heavy, ultimate release of emotion) Now you want me to trust you, believe every word! Like the sting of your lies is a thing I never heard! You say that you’ve changed, yeah, you're singing it true— God, I wish I knew how to come back to you! [Outro] (Music slowly fades, instruments dropping out one by one) Back to you... Yeah, you want me to try. Look you dead in the eye. (Just a single piano note holding) I just don't know how... (Silence)
