Intro I replay the chats, the empty screen, Typing words you’ll never read. Every “maybe” cuts too deep — But I still bleed, just quietly. Verse 1 You said, “I’m not like the rest,” Guess promises don’t pass the test. I blamed my silence, blamed my tone, Like somehow I drove you home. But I was there through every storm, While your warmth went cold, your shape reformed. You vanished behind your phone, And left me to stand alone. Pre-Chorus I kept asking what I missed, Why I wasn’t worth the fix. Now it’s clear — the truth you hid: You were the one who quit. Chorus It wasn’t me who left — I was still there, out of breath. You drifted off mid-conversation, Left me drowning in frustration. I begged for reason, But silence was your defense. You didn’t leave ‘cause I failed — You left ‘cause you were frail. Verse 2 I filled the void with hollow noise, You muted me, you made your choice. You said “I get you,” but that was talk — You walked away when I couldn’t walk. And I still thought it was me, If I’d tried more, maybe you’d see. But ghosts don’t hear, they just pretend, Until you stop — and that’s the end. Pre-Chorus I gave time, I gave grace, You gave me your empty space. Now I see the truth I missed — You never planned to coexist. Chorus It wasn’t me who left — You pulled the cord, I felt the theft. You said “I care,” but you just lied, Watched me fade while you hid inside. I begged for reason, But silence was your defense. You didn’t leave ‘cause I broke — You left ‘cause you were smoke. Bridge Now I scroll past your name, No tears, no flame. You’re a ghost in my past, And I’ve stopped asking why it couldn’t last. You taught me how to let go, How to breathe through what I’ll never know. Chorus It wasn’t me who left — I stayed, I fought, I wept. You chose the quiet exit door, While I was worth so much more. You didn’t go ‘cause I was wrong — You went ‘cause I was too strong. Outro Now when I see your name, I don’t flinch — You taught me pain comes inch by inch. But I’m not the ghost — you are. I survived. You disappeared. It wasn’t me who left.

It Wasn't Me Who Left
