Lyrics

[Intro – 0:00–0:12 | Soft ambient pad, reversed piano, low heartbeat FX]
[Whispers under breath, distant rain FX]
Three weeks of silence felt louder than a war…
I walked back in hoping for love, but her eyes didn’t match her smile anymore.

[Beat drops at 0:12 – 808 bass hits, piano settles, slow drum groove begins]

⸻

[Verse 1]
I was the storm, I’ll admit it first
Left her alone with love half-nursed
Thought time apart would bloom us clean
But healing don’t work if the roots still bleed

She held me like she used to pray
But her soul had moved some miles away
And I — a fool with guilt in hand
Still let lust in like a one-night plan

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – rising falsetto, light string layering]
I came back with broken glass in my chest
Told her the truth, laid down the rest
She looked at me like a soft sunrise
But love ain’t truth if it’s built on lies

⸻

[Chorus – full beat with layered harmonies and deep bass swell]
That night in the Airbnb,
Her phone lit up right next to me
And something snapped — I crossed a line
Unlocked the glow… and lost my mind

All those “just friends” I used to trust
Now flirting in threads laced with hidden lust
Even when I was clinging to life in bed
She was scrolling through matches instead

God, if it’s love, don’t let it rot
Bring it back… or let it stop

⸻

[Verse 2 – stripped to fingerpicked guitar + deep ambient pad]
I dropped the habits, killed the pride
Became a man who’d fight not hide
Held her ache like it was mine
While mine stayed buried, undefined

But behind that smile I used to adore
Lived a girl who’d opened a different door
She said I was her only vow
But fell for another, anyhow

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2 – vocal harmonies echo softly]
You said forever — I believed
Now I wonder, what’s left of me?
Was I home, or just a phase?
A stand-in for your in-between days?

⸻

[Chorus – chorus with string swells + gospel choir layer]
That night in the Airbnb,
Truth hit harder than jealousy
I saw her joy on someone’s screen
While I was dying in a morphine dream

She promised change, swore no repeats
But broken cycles run so deep
If I’m your peace, then let it show
If I’m not, God… let me go

⸻

[Bridge – piano, ambient reverb, low whisper]
[Spoken]
I never looked before… but my spirit knew.
And I wish I hadn’t. But I had to.

[Soft falsetto]
You said I was your only one
But love like that… shouldn’t need to run

⸻

[Final Chorus – emotional crescendo, beat fades then returns slowly]
If I’m what she wants, let her choose me whole
Not men with time, or gifts that stole
Not video calls that feed her doubt
While I was bleeding my insides out

Let her come back with honest feet
Not halfway love, not bittersweet
But if that 7 months rewrote her plan
God, don’t let her drag this man

⸻

[Outro – ambient fade, just piano + rain FX]
[Whispered over fading chord]
If I’m no longer the one she wants…
please don’t let me stay where I’m only filling space. But in all the doubt, I pray she see’s me for someone she can love fully forever
