[Verse]
I’m your shadow when the lights go out
Your echo when they shut you out
But you only call when the silence screams
I’m the backup plan in your broken dreams
I’ve been your constant
Your safety net
But you forget me the moment you’re set
You only see me when they close their door
I’m the spare key you leave on the floor
[Prechorus]
I’m not your maybe
I’m not your fall-back
Not the station when your train’s off track
[Chorus]
I’ve always been here
I’ve always been here
Through your storms
Through your fear
I’ve always been here
I’ve always been clear
But you only see me disappear
[Verse 2]
I’m the friend who stayed when the crowd was thin
But you treat my loyalty like a violin
Play me soft when the world’s too loud
Then toss me aside when you find your crowd
I’m not a bench you rest on for a while
Not the hand that holds your denial
I’ve got a heart
Not a revolving door
I deserve more
I deserve more
