Verse 1 There’s a jacket on the chair I left Didn’t take it when I walked outside Figured I’d be back by morning Guess I lied You were sitting on the back step Didn’t try to stop me go Like we both knew something broke A while ago Pre-Chorus Ain’t no slam, ain’t no scene Just two people in between Chorus Somebody had to walk away And it wasn’t gonna be you I kept waiting on a change That you never meant to do So I took what I had left of me Before it all got gone Yeah somebody had to leave that night So I did it on my own Verse 2 There’s a silence that you get used to When you’re living side by side Like the air that fills the room You no longer recognize I was talking, you were somewhere else Every word just fell between Like I was trying to hold together Something leaving Pre-Chorus I held on past the truth That’s what holding on will do Chorus Somebody had to walk away And it wasn’t gonna be you I kept waiting on a change That you never meant to do So I took what I had left of me Before it all got gone Yeah somebody had to leave that night So I did it on my own Bridge (stripped → build) I didn’t leave ‘cause I stopped caring I left ‘cause I could feel me disappear (build) And I ain’t blaming you for nothing But I couldn’t stay right there Final Chorus (bigger, emotional lift) Somebody had to walk away Before there was nothing left Before I forgot my own name Trying to be someone else So I took what I had left of me And I carried it out that door Yeah somebody had to leave that night And I ain’t yours anymore Outro (quiet, resolved) No, I ain’t yours anymore
