Lyrics
I was real from the start, laid my soul on the line,
You played your role, then stole my time.
Soft words, perfect smile, thought you’d make me stay,
Love isn’t a game you can learn to play.
You showed up with charm, but your soul was late
Now you ghost like it never held any weight
But it’s cool, I’m not beggin’ you to stay
What’s meant for me won’t ever feel that way.
[Pre-Chorus]
While you’re out chasing empty highs
I’ve been healing, cutting ties
You’ll look for me in every face
But I’ll be gone without a trace
[Chorus]
One day you’ll regret
Letting me slip through your hands
When you’re drowning in the silence
Wishing you could go back again
When my name hits your chest like a wave
And you see the blues you tried to erase
You’ll remember the love you threw away
But baby, this time I’m walking away
[Verse 2]
You took it all while I gave my soul,
I was warmth in your cold, yet you let me go.
I stayed true while you played your game,
Now I won’t bow to your lies or shame.
You burned out quick, couldn’t stand the flame,
Now I’m the one you’ll curse by name
I’ve been climbing day by day,
While you’re stuck in yesterday
[Chorus]
One day you’ll regret
Letting me slip through your hands
When you’re drowning in the silence
Wishing you could go back again
When my name hits your chest like a wave
And you see the blues you tried to erase
You’ll remember the love you threw away
But baby, this time I’m walking away
[Bridge – soft, layered vocals]
Don’t try to call when you finally break
I won’t be there for your heartache
You taught me what I had to learn
Now it’s your turn to burn
[Final Chorus – stronger vocals, ad-libs]
One day you’ll regret,
All the love you erased.
The mirror will betray you,
When you can’t escape your face.
When my light feels distant, but still remains
And your pride fades with the taste
Of all the love you threw away
You’ll see me, and I’ll walk away
[Outro – soft, echoing]
Yeah, I’m walking…
I’m walking away…
