Something in my heart

You lit me up without a warning

Like a match against the dark

Didn’t think it would keep burning

Didn’t know it’d leave a mark

Now it’s quiet in the spaces

Where your voice would always stay

And I’m learning how to breathe

In a colder kind of way

⸻

You said it wasn’t meant to last

I held onto it like glass

⸻

You started something in my heart

Now it’s tearing me apart

Every second that you’re gone

Feels like I’m holding it too long

And you changed it

All the light, you rearranged it

I believed we could’ve made it

But you changed it

⸻

You were fighting your own silence

I was trying to be enough

But you slipped out of my hands

Like love was something rough

All I wanted was a future

Simple, steady, something real

Not a moment I’d replay

Just to remember how it feels

⸻

We were running towards a line

That kept moving every time

⸻

You started something in my heart

Now I don’t know where you are

All the dreams we used to hold

Feel distant, feel so cold

And you changed it

Every word, you rearranged it

Now there’s nothing left to name it

Yeah, you changed it

⸻

Maybe we were never meant

To survive what we began

We kept reaching for a spark

While it slipped right through our hands

And I lost more than I knew

Just by holding onto you

⸻

I’ll miss you in the quiet

In the places you once stayed

And I won’t forget the feeling

Even if it fades away

…even if you walked away.
