Lyrics

---
{Intro}
[Soft piano melody begins]
[Cello enters halfway with long, mournful notes]
[Electric guitar (clean, ambient swells) in background]
---
{Verse 1}
I thought I was her favorite,
The one who made her glow.
I thought I could do no wrong—
Guess I didn’t know.
I thought she heard my name
In every love song on the air…
Now I’m just silence,
Like I was never there.
[Light strings rise, subtle bass joins]
---
{Verse 2}
Turns out I’m nothing—
Just background noise, a chore.
An irritation she tolerates,
But doesn’t love anymore.
Incomprehensible, not worth the time,
No point in learning the rhythm of my rhyme…
[Electric guitar adds light picking with delay]
[Drums enter with slow, sparse floor tom hits]
---
{Chorus}
But I’d hold bandages on her wounds
‘Til the end of time—
If it meant she’d be okay,
If I could call her mine.
Just one more day,
As the person I was to her…
One more day
Of being perfect in her world.
If she only knew
How bad it hurts
When she decides I’m bad…
It’s like the sun
Has gone behind a cloud,
And I can’t bring it back.
[Strings swell emotionally under chorus]
[Guitar begins light distortion; drums pulse gently]
---
{Bridge}
The harder I try,
The harder I fall.
I reach out with love,
But she’s built up a wall.
Being someone she respects—
That would be the world to me…
But she sees shadows in my steps,
Not the light I try to be.
[Full band builds; strings rise dramatically]
[Drums intensify; guitar distortion swells]
---
{Final Chorus}
I’d hold bandages on her wounds
‘Til my hands couldn’t feel,
If it meant one more moment
Where her smile was real.
Just one more day
As the one she once adored…
One more day
Before she closed that door.
[Orchestration swells to emotional peak]
[Drums hit strong; harmonies rise; strings and guitar intertwine]
---
{Outro}
She always thinks I’m up to no good,
But I’d be the best if I could.
I’d give her every answer
To every riddle ever spoken…
Just to keep her heart intact
Before mine ended broken.
[Music softens gradually—drums drop out, strings fade]
[Piano plays final descending motif]
[Guitar clean, ambient echoes]
Just one more day…
Before she walked away.
[Final note lingers in silence]
