Description
[Verse 1]
I sat on your fire-escape while the city drowned in rain,
Neon lights flickered shadows, whispering your name.
I held your light through nights that froze, no warmth to borrow,
You vanished like a midnight train, no promise for tomorrow.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every step, I walked alone,
Carrying dreams, building a home.
Through storms fierce and bittersweet pain,
I was there, you weren't, it’s plain.
[Chorus]
I was there, you weren't, when the world cracked apart,
I poured my soul, you stayed afar.
I was there, you weren't, through the darkest fights,
Held on tight, burning through those nights.
I was there, you weren't — now watch me rise,
From broken glass to open skies.
[Verse 2]
A broken locket in my palm, your picture faded thin,
I reached for echoes in the wind, but you’d never been.
Promises burned like tickets tossed in subway flames,
I kept the spark alive alone, called out only names.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every step, I walked alone,
Carrying dreams, building a home.
Through storms fierce and bittersweet pain,
I was there, you weren't, it’s plain.
[Chorus]
I was there, you weren't, when the world cracked apart,
I poured my soul, you stayed afar.
I was there, you weren't, through the darkest fights,
Held on tight, burning through those nights.
I was there, you weren't — now watch me rise,
From broken glass to open skies.
[Bridge - Spoken]
Remember that night, the message never sent? Cold phone, cold heart, the silence spent.
I waited by the window, watching the streetlights fade,
Your absence carved a hollow, but I’m no longer afraid.
[Chorus]
I was there, you weren't, when the world cracked apart,
I poured my soul, you stayed afar.
I was there, you weren't, through the darkest fights,
Held on tight, burning through those nights.
I was there, you weren't — now watch me rise,
From broken glass to open skies.
[Outro]
That broken locket’s mine to keep,
No more shadows, no more sleep.
I was there, I was there, now I’m free,
Unforgettable, just me.
