Don't Tell Me

[Verse 1] I walk in the room, the silence is loud, Your phone lights up, and I see you turn around. A name I don’t know, flashing on your screen, I catch your eyes, they don’t look so clean. I ask you once, “Tell me the truth,” Your lips tremble, but the lie slips through. My chest is burning, I can’t sit still, The walls are shaking with the weight I feel. [Chorus] Don’t tell me it’s nothing, I can see it in your face, Another man’s shadow still lingers in this place. I’m breaking right here, while you try to defend, But a story this crooked’s got no way to bend. [Verse 2] You raise your voice, I raise it higher, Every word you throw just fuels the fire. You say, “It was a mistake, it didn’t mean a thing,” But a broken vow still cuts like a blade through skin. I slam the door, you’re crying my name, But love and betrayal don’t burn the same flame. I see the night where you thought I’d never know, But the truth drips heavy, and it’s killing us slow. [Chorus] Don’t tell me it’s nothing, I can see it in your face, Another man’s shadow still lingers in this place. I’m breaking right here, while you try to defend, But a story this crooked’s got no way to bend. [Bridge] The clock ticks, but we’re frozen in time, Every lie rewinds like a twisted rhyme. I’m staring at you, but I don’t see her— Just a stranger wrapped in the ghost of my lover. [Outro] So I’m walking away while your tears hit the floor, You wanted forgiveness, but I can’t anymore. This fight is the ending we both should’ve seen, I’m leaving the ruins of what we’ve been.
