what she said when she left đ
[Verse 1]
I came home, the lights were off
The kettle cold, your coffee cup
Still standing there like it forgot
You wouldnât be coming back
A note was taped to the kitchen wall
Folded twice like you thought thatâd soften the fall
Said I never asked, never saw you at all
Funny how you never said that out loud
[Pre-Chorus]
I wouldâve stayed, I wouldâve changed
If I had known you felt that way
But silence sounds like everythingâs okay
Until it breaksâ
[Chorus]
So maybe I talk too loud
And maybe I missed the signs
But you looked at me like I was enough
You kissed me like I got it right
So donât tell me now I made you feel small
When you never told me at all
Yeah, maybe I was blind
But you made me think I saw the light
[Verse 2]
I play our song on my guitar
Up on the roof where the stars still are
But they donât shine the way they did
When you were here, and I was it
Your list of hurt, a silent scream
Each line a cut, a haunting dream
Like I was loving you all wrong
But how could I know, if you just smiled all along?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I wouldâve listened, I wouldâve bent
If you had told me what you meant
But now the paper speaks instead
And it saysâ
[Chorus]
Maybe I talk too loud
And maybe I missed the signs
But you looked at me like I was enough
You kissed me like I got it right
So donât tell me now I made you feel small
When you never told me at all
Yeah, maybe I was blind
But you made me think I saw the light
[Bridge] (mit FlĂŒstern oder entferntem Telefonfilter)
"You never asked how I was."
"You made everything about you."
"You loved me in the way that hurt most."
â thatâs what she said when she left
[Final Chorus]
Maybe I was selfish
Maybe I was wrong
But you looked me in the eyes and told me I was home
Now Iâm screaming at the sky
Wishing you'd said goodbye
Not left me with a note
And the ghost of what you felt inside
[Outro â gebrochene Stimme]
And I still play that song
Even if I play it all alone
Your words still echo in my chest
But the roof is quietâŠ
except for the mess
(Stimme bricht, letzter Ton zieht sich⊠dann nur noch Schluchzen. Gitarre klingt langsam aus.)
