Şarkı sözleri

I learned your language before I learned my own
I studied every silence like a text I should have known
I knew the ones that meant I'd gone too far
And the ones that meant keep talking, you're doing fine
I built my moods around your weather patterns
Adjusted everything I felt to match the room
I called it love because it looked like love from far away
And maybe parts of it were, that's the difficult part
But who was I when the room was empty
Who was I when you weren't there to read
I had forgotten what I wanted
I had forgotten that I'm allowed to need
I was the version you needed when you needed it
I was the quiet and the patience and the steady
I gave it all and never thought to ask myself
If anyone was doing that for me
I was the version you needed, and I played it well
But I've been living in that character so long
I don't know where the role ends and I begin
I don't know how to let her go and still be strong
It wasn't your fault that I made myself smaller
You never asked me to, that's what haunts me most
I chose the version of myself I thought would keep you
And in keeping you I made myself a ghost
There's a conversation that we never had
About what I needed and what I was afraid to say
I carried it so long it stopped feeling like a burden
And started feeling like the only way
I'm not angry
I made those choices too
I'm just finally sitting with the cost of them
And learning what it means
To take up space
Without apologizing for it
I don't know where the role ends and I begin
I don't know how to let her go and still be strong
