Lyrics
I held on longer than I should,
Tracing memories that stayed after you left.
Your voice faded, but the ache remained,
Quiet, steady, like a shadow on my chest.
I kept hoping you'd turn around,
But some doors are meant to stay closed.
I breathe in, slowly—
The truth settling in like morning light.
So I let go,
Softly, but with a spark in my heart.
I let go—
Feeling lighter, feeling new,
Like sunlight breaking through the clouds.
This goodbye isn't the end,
It's the start of something true.
Minimal piano chords with gentle electric guitar echoes,
Sparse finger snaps and soft reverb,
Breathy ambient pads filling the space,
Like a pause to catch your breath before moving on.
I used to shrink so you could stay,
But love shouldn't cost who I am.
Your silence taught me more than your words—
That losing you isn't losing myself.
Now every step feels lighter,
Like I'm finally walking into my own life.
And I whisper to the past—
Thank you, but stay there.
So I let go,
Softly, but with a spark in my heart.
I let go—
Feeling lighter, feeling new,
Like sunlight breaking through the clouds.
This goodbye isn't the end,
It's the start of something true.
Maybe you were a chapter,
But I'm the one who keeps writing.
Maybe we were something,
But I'm becoming someone.
So this is it—my quiet, good goodbye.
