Not for Coming Back

[Intro] Don’t look at me like that, you came too late for love. I’m someone else now, I’m not going back, remember that. [Verse 1] You called me again till three last night, and today you’re proud again, right? When you had me, you stayed silent, when I’m gone, you go insane. I put on black lipstick, the kind you know can hurt. I walk into the club like a storm, and everyone asks, “Who is that girl?” [Pre-Chorus] I’m not your weakness, I’m not your blame, I’m a woman after the war. You left me alone to burn, now watch me shine on my own. [Chorus] I’m not for coming back, not for begging, I’m for being watched and being envied. Whoever loses me then understands that a woman like me can’t be found. I’m not for coming back, not for crying, I’m for nights with the lights still shining. You let me slip away, it’s over, done, now watch me from afar and say nothing. [Drop / Hook] I’m not, not, not for coming back, a beautiful mistake you need to face. I’m not, not, not for coming back, now my silence is what’s hurting you. [Verse 2] You keep asking who I’m with, why are you burning up so much? When I was yours, you didn’t care, now you’ll be praying for me. At the bar they pour me compliments, my phone is burning up. You’re just an old contact that doesn’t call anymore. [Pre-Chorus] I’m not your habit, I’m not your home, don’t come looking after alcohol. You taught me how to be ice, now you freeze all by yourself. [Chorus] I’m not for coming back, not for begging, I’m for being watched and being envied. Whoever loses me then understands that a woman like me can’t be found. I’m not for coming back, not for crying, I’m for nights with the lights still shining. You let me slip away, it’s over, done, now watch me from afar and say nothing. [Bridge] And you can wait outside the door, and you can shout beneath the window, there’s no going back — I’ve locked away that memory. Drink to me if it hurts, text me, then delete it. I’m already past it all, you’re the one left underneath my heel. [Final Chorus] I’m not for coming back, not for begging, I’m for being watched and being envied. Whoever loses me then understands that a woman like me can’t be found. I’m not for coming back, not for crying, I’m for nights with the lights still shining. You let me slip away, it’s over, done, now watch me from afar and say nothing. [Outro] I’m not for coming back, not for begging. I’m for remembering, and you — for forgetting.
