Lyrics

You keep me just out of focus
Like something you don’t claim
Only close enough to use me
Never close enough to stay

Every word feels calculated
Like you’re choosing what to break
I was never what you wanted
Just a habit you could take

Say it softer
Like it doesn’t cut as deep

You can throw me away again
Like I’m nothing in your hands
Like I don’t know what I am
Every time you need it
You can leave me where I stand
Like I’m less than what I’ve been
But I see it for what it is
I won’t stay like this
I won’t stay like this

You only call when it’s empty
When there’s no one else around
I can hear it in your silence
Every time you shut me out

I kept trying to be enough
For something you won’t name
Now I’m done trying to fix it
Done playing your game

Say it clearly
I don’t need it dressed in lies

You can throw me away again
Like I’m nothing in your hands
Like I don’t know what I am
Every time you need it
You can leave me where I stand
Like I’m less than what I’ve been
But I see it for what it is
I won’t stay like this
I won’t stay like this

I wore the weight like it was mine
Let it shape me over time
Every piece you left behind
Is something I don’t need

Not this time
Not this time

You can throw me away again
Like I’m nothing in your hands
Like I don’t know what I am
Every time you need it
You can leave me where I stand
Like I’m less than what I’ve been
But I see it for what it is
I won’t stay like this

Call it what you want
I’m done
