Verse 1
You were there when I messed up
Didn’t say much, just stayed close
Pulled me out when I went too far
Even when I didn’t deserve hope
I kept saying I’d be better
Said it like I meant it this time
But I did the same things over
Just learned how to hide the signs
Pre-Chorus
You gave me chance after chance
I called it luck, not grace
I thought you’d always be there
No matter what I became
Chorus
Now you’re gone and it’s quiet
No warning, no goodbye
Guess even someone watching over me
Can get tired of my lies
I don’t feel you anymore
When I’m standing on the edge
If you walked away, I get it
I kept choosing who I was instead
Verse 2
I blamed the world, blamed the timing
Blamed my head, blamed the pain
Said I’m trying, said I’m learning
While I stayed the same
You kept me from my worst days
More times than I can count
I didn’t listen when you whispered
I only noticed when you stopped
Pre-Chorus
You weren’t asking me to be perfect
Just honest, just awake
I treated help like pressure
And love like something fake
Chorus
Now you’re gone and it’s quiet
No warning, no goodbye
Guess even someone watching over me
Can get tired of my lies
I don’t feel you anymore
When I’m standing on the edge
If you walked away, I get it
I kept choosing who I was instead
Bridge (soft, almost spoken)
If you ever really knew me
You saw this coming first
I don’t think you failed me
I think I made it hurt
Outro
So I’ll carry what you taught me
Even if you’re not around
If I ever find the light again
I’ll know I had to burn it down
If you’re gone… I understand
I wasn’t ready to be saved
