[Verse 1]
Your name still shows up in my phone [pause]
But I don’t dial it—just stare and scroll
I’ve been blamin’ me for every scar
But that don’t mean you ain’t got your part
[beat hits soft, guitar strum in the back]
I took the fall and wore it proud
Swallowed silence just to keep it down
But baby, if we’re tellin’ truths [pause]
You weren’t all that innocent too
---
[Chorus]
[slow build with drums in background]
Maybe I wasn’t the only problem
Maybe you were breakin' right beside me
Maybe I wasn’t the only one drinkin’
Just the only one admitin’ I was drowning
You said our little life just wasn’t enough
Kept chasin’ more, callin’ it love
So I hope he gives you what you’re lookin’ for now
But maybe I wasn’t the only letdown
[soft breath]
---
[Verse 2]
You wanted bright lights—I needed peace
You played house while dreamin’ of release
I gave you all I had in worn-out ways
But it wasn’t shiny enough to make you stay
I ain’t claimin’ I was perfect, no
But you were already halfway out the door
So tell me now, was it really just me?
Or did you want someone I just couldn’t be?
---
[Chorus]
Maybe I wasn’t the only problem
Maybe you were gone before the end
Maybe I wasn’t the only one breakin’
Just the only one who broke and then pretended
You said I burned the bridge with just one match
But you’d been pourin’ gas behind my back
So I hope he builds the life you think you need
But maybe I ain’t the only casualty
---
[Bridge]
[guitar softens, vocals nearly whispered]
I wish you peace, I wish you sleep
Hope he’s everything you hoped from me
But if you ever find yourself alone [pause]
Starin’ at your ceiling with that phone…
---
[Final Chorus]
[drums swell, final verse hits with emotion]
Maybe we were both the problem
Maybe we just weren’t built to last
Maybe love got tangled up in silence
Maybe we were movin’ way too fast
You said forever, then you packed your bags
Left me holdin’ nothin’ but the past
So I hope he’s everything that I’m not
But maybe I wasn’t the only one who got lost
---
[Outro]
[light acoustic fade, raw vocal]
No hard feelings, babe, just one last line…
Maybe I wasn’t the only one this time
