Where You Broke Me

**Verse 1**

I still sleep on your side of the bed

Like it might trick my body to forget

The weight of your hand on my ribs

The way you swore this was it

There’s a crack in the mirror now

Right where your face used to be

I don’t know who I am without you

Just a shadow staring back at me

**Pre-Chorus**

Every quiet corner of this house

Still sounds like your voice

And I replay the night you left

Like I had a choice

**Chorus**

You didn’t just leave, you took

Every steady part of me

Ripped the floor out from under my feet

And called it setting me free

Now I’m crawling through memories

Cutting my hands on the truth

You said love shouldn’t hurt like this

So why does it feel like you?

**Verse 2**

I tried to wash your scent from my skin

But it’s buried too deep in my bones

I carry you under my tongue

Like a prayer that’s already gone

Your laughter still echoes in halls

That don’t belong to you anymore

And I swear I can hear your keys

When I’m collapsed on the floor

**Pre-Chorus**

I thought if I gave you my heart

You’d at least leave half behind

But you took every beating piece

And left me with the silence

**Chorus**

You didn’t just leave, you tore

Through the marrow in my chest

Left me bleeding out in slow motion

With your name pressed to my lips

Now I’m gasping in empty rooms

Trying to breathe through the ache

If this is what love was meant to be

Why am I the one it breaks?

**Bridge (soft, trembling)**

Tell me how you walk away

Like we were just a phase

How you fold up years of us

And throw them into yesterday

I would’ve stayed through every storm

Every scar and bruise

But you decided I was something

You could afford to lose

**Final Chorus (cracked, desperate)**

You didn’t just leave, you shattered

Every version of my name

Turned “forever” into fragments

And set my world in flames

Now I’m screaming at the ceiling

But the ceiling doesn’t move

If love is supposed to save you

Why didn’t it save us too?

**Outro**

I don’t know how to unlove you.

I don’t know how to stand.

You broke me in a way

That doesn’t heal —

It just learns how to hurt quieter.
