Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I never wanted a trophy, never wanted a prize Didn’t step into this with a war in my eyes It was never a battle, never a game Just a love that I swore I would fight to save [Pre-Chorus] But silence cuts deeper than words ever could And I stood at the door longer than I should I begged for a truth, not a victory sign But I guess walking away means the win is mine [Chorus] But it’s not a win, not a celebration Just an ending wrapped in hesitation I didn’t want to be the one still standing I just wanted us to find some understanding If letting go means I take the title Then crown me the king of what’s gone idle But to me, that crown means nothin’ ‘Cause this was never something to win [Verse 2] I counted the days, hoping you’d change your mind But you locked up your heart, and left me outside I gave you truth, thought you’d give me the same But I guess walking away means I’ll take the pain [Pre-Chorus] But silence cuts deeper than words ever could And I stood at the door longer than I should I begged for a truth, not a victory sign But I guess walking away means the win is mine [Chorus] But it’s not a win, not a celebration Just an ending wrapped in hesitation I didn’t want to be the one still standing I just wanted us to find some understanding If letting go means I take the title Then crown me the king of what’s gone idle But to me, that crown means nothin’ ‘Cause this was never something to win [Bridge] Take your silence, take your closure If that’s what you need, I’ll leave us in peace But don’t mistake my silence for composure ‘Cause this isn’t how I wanted to be free [Final Chorus - softer, more reflective] It’s not a win, not a celebration Just an ending I never wanted to face I didn’t want to be the one still standing I just wanted us to find a way If letting go means I take the title Then call me the champion of what could’ve been But I don’t want the crown, don’t want the glory ‘Cause this was never something to win [Outro - quiet, almost whispered] I never wanted a trophy, never wanted a prize I just wanted a friend who would stand by my side
