DescriptionI've been writing since I was 16-17 and am just now getting into putting my words out there. I write a good bit from life experience, but have no problem getting a subject and taking off with it. Looking forward to making some connections :)

Lyrics

Genres: Metal, Rock

[Intro – whispered]
You said you loved me…
You said it was forever…
So tell me—
who is she?

[Verse 1]
You left your phone face down again,
Another secret underneath your skin.
You said you had to work late tonight,
But I saw her car beneath the streetlight.

Her name lighting up at 2:09,
You swore that you were mine.
But every word became another lie,
And something in me finally died.

[Chorus]
You were sleeping beside me,
While She was living in your head.
Every kiss became a lie,
Every promise left for dead.

You thought you could have everything,
Two hearts tied to one damn string.
But now the truth is standing here—
And there’s nowhere left to disappear.

[Verse 2]
I found the pictures that you hid,
The messages you swore you never did.
Her lipstick on your collar,
While I was waiting here alone.

You called me crazy.
Called me blind.
Said I was losing my mind.
But every word you threw at me
Was just another lie you hid.

[Breakdown]
LOOK AT ME!

Don’t look away!

SAY HER NAME!

Tell me that you love her!
Tell me I’m nothing!
Tell me every fucking lie
you’ve been hiding from me!

[Bridge – slow, haunting]
I remember when you held my hand,
Said you’d never hurt me.
Funny how forever ends
when forever isn’t what you gave me.

You thought I’d never know.
You thought I’d let it go.

But broken hearts don’t always break quietly.

[Final Chorus]
You were sleeping beside me,
While she was living in your head.
Now every word comes back to you,
Every lie you thought I never knew.

You wanted her.
You wanted me.
You wanted everything for free.

But love isn’t something you can steal—
And broken hearts don’t always heal.

[Outro]

[whispered]
Female: “Tell me one more time
that you love her.”

Male: “I…”

[GUNSHOT]

Female: “That’s what I thought.”

[Silence]
