I can't go on

Verse 1

Clock ticks loud in a room that used to breathe,

your perfume lingers like a ghost on my sleeve.

I keep my phone face-down, afraid to lose control,

every silent hour steals another piece of my soul.


Pre-Chorus

Told my heart to wake up, told my pride to stand,

but every step without you feels like sinking sand.


Chorus

I can’t go on, not like this, not alone,

your shadow’s in my chest, your name’s carved in my bones.

I can’t go on, baby, tell me what to do,

my world’s on hold, heart on pause, I keep coming back to you.


Verse 2

Streetlights blur like memories on the run,

your laughter is the rhythm of a song I can’t outrun.

Friends say let it go, say time will heal the pain,

but love’s a stubborn echo calling out your name.


Pre-Chorus

I play our promises like records in the dark,

each scratch reminds me of where we fell apart.


Chorus

I can’t go on, not like this, not alone,

your shadow’s in my chest, your name’s carved in my bones.

I can’t go on, baby, tell me what to do,

my world’s on hold, heart on pause, I keep coming back to you.


Bridge

If love is a battlefield, I’ll learn to stand my ground,

if words can build a bridge, I’ll build one from my vows.

I know I left you doubt, I know I left you scars,

but I’d trade a thousand nights to heal where we are.


Break (soft)

Ooh — I’m calling out your silence, ooh — please answer if you’re near,

ooh — don’t let the story end in a whisper of what we were here.


Final Chorus (bigger)

I can’t go on, not like this, not alone,

your shadow’s in my chest, your name’s carved in my bones.

I can’t go on, baby, I’m calling out to you,

my world’s on hold, heart on pause — come back and make it true.


Outro (breathy)

Can’t go on without you, can’t breathe this empty room,

my heart’s on pause, waiting — baby, come back soon.
