Why Are You Still Watching Me?

[Verse 1]
You broke the vows, thought I’d stay blind
But truth has a way of showing in time
I didn’t beg, I didn’t plead
I let you go so I could breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
You made your mess, I made my peace
But you won’t let the silence be
[Chorus]
Why are you still watching me?
Like I’m your unfinished casualty
You played the game, I took the fall
But I stood up and left it all
I’m not your puppet, not your prey
You don’t get to look my way
Why are you still watching me?
When I burned the past away
[Verse 2]
You lost the right to know my days
Yet here you are, stuck in the haze
Stalking shadows, scrolling feeds
While I rebuild what you made bleed
[Pre-Chorus]
You made your mess, I made my peace
But you won’t let the silence be
[Chorus]
Why are you still watching me?
Like I’m your unfinished casualty
You played the game, I took the fall
But I stood up and left it all
I’m not your puppet, not your prey
You don’t get to look my way
Why are you still watching me?
When I burned the past away
[Bridge]
Is it power you crave? Or shame you deny?
Either way, I cut the tie
No more chains, no more control
You don't get to own my soul
[Final Chorus]
Why are you still watching me?
Like I’m the ghost you failed to keep
I’ve got no fear, no time to waste
I’m free now ,  stay in your place
I’m not your shadow, not your game
I don’t flinch when you say my name
Why are you still watching me?
When I’ve already walked away
[Outro]
You don’t get the final scene
Why are you still watching me?
