Lyrics

Ooh, yeah

I knew the whole time

It's the part I keep coming back to

Ooh, I knew

Yes, ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm fourteen, the energy shifted

Felt it in the way you answered, something lifted

Out the room before you even walked in

I clocked your face before you started talking

Replies got slow, excuses got creative

Girl trips multiplied, I stopped being invited

New music in your phone, I heard it through the wall

Someone else's taste bleeding through the hall

You laughed at your scream but never showed me why

I catalogued that moment, let it slide

Told myself it's nothing, told myself it's fine

I was building alibis for you inside my mind

The compliments stopped landing how they used to

Like I say the right words to the wrong woman

Watched you get dressed up and go somewhere without me

And I sat with it, cause leaving first would cost me

See, I ain't built to be the one who walks

I'm built to stay too long and overanalyze it all

I read every signal, mapped the distance

Knew the map was off and still signed off on the business

I saw it coming, yeah, I saw it all

Read every sign and watched it fading

Still, I didn't call it

Stayed inside the wreckage acting like it wasn't falling

And when it finally ended, I was ready

That's the haunting, saw it coming

Had the proof right there, chose to look away

Cause looking meant I'd have to care enough to leave

And leaving felt like losing

So I stayed inside a love that was already grieving me

I won't lie, the optics kept me comfortable

You looked good on my arm and that felt functional

Stability's a drug when your world moves fast

And you was something solid I could point to

In the chaos deep down, I believe that if I loved you harder

I could be the reason that you stayed and went no further

Like my presence was enough to pull you back to center

Ego wrapped in love, I thought that I could fix the weather

So I planted trees we never took

Kept reservations for a chapter that you'd already closed the book

I was writing us a future while you were writing exits

And I told myself the silence was just stress, it wasn't

That last evening, you were there but absent

Sitting across from me like something undone

Unfinished, no big fight, no dramatic exit

Just two people realizing the truth that already happened

You walked out calm, I let you go the same way

No begging, no performance, just the weight of a weekday

Locked the door and sat down in the quiet, in the quiet

Finally said the thing I've been avoiding

I saw it coming, yeah, I saw it all

Read every sign and watched us fading

Still, I didn't call it, stayed inside the wreckage

Acting like it wasn't falling

When it finally ended, I was ready

That's the haunting, saw it coming

Had the proof right there, chose to look away

Cause looking meant I'd have to care enough to leave

And leaving felt like losing

So I stayed inside a love that was already grieving me

Three, three, three, three weeks out and she's already living

Rooftop in the city that I mentioned, different vision

Someone behind the camera that ain't no girlfriend

Laughing like she never lost a night of sleep on ascending

And here's the part that hit me like a verdict

She wasn't unhappy with love, she was unhappy with aversion

She had the energy somewhere before she ever moved a thing

I was talking to a woman who was living in her dreams

The image in my chest like confirmation

Everything I clocked for months became a full equation

She didn't know me sadness, didn't know me time to heal

But watching her glow like that made every warning sign feel real

See, I'm not angry, let me make that very clear

She didn't lie or break me, I just chose not to heal

I saw the exits, I just didn't move toward the door

Stayed cause comfort felt like love and I confused the two before

And that's on me, I own him fully, no revision

I watched slowly turn to flooding, kept on living

Like I thought my love was loud enough to change the ending

Like if I just stayed patient, she'd come back to what we had in the beginning

I kept her on a pedestal and called it dedication

Dressed up my denial as some kind of deep devotion

Every man got a line where the truth gets inconvenient

Mine was much more teeming, I crossed it without meaning

So now I sit with everything I knew and didn't act on

All the moments I rewrote to make the picture look less fractured

I was so convinced that staying was the harder, braver thing to do

But the bravest thing would've been to say

I see you leaving and let you

I hope you're good, I genuinely mean it

I see you out there living and I don't feel defeated

Just this hollow kind of wisdom where the love see

Thanks for watching
