I'm the one you saved

[Intro - Rhythmic acoustic strumming, warm bass] [Verse 1] I was lost in the static, the hollow lights, the fame, Just a ghost in a suit, just a shouted name. Then you stood there in the canvas, in the stifling summer heat, And for a second, the world felt incomplete. You gave me a cup, and a charm for my keys, I saw your heart racing, I saw you on your knees. I never told you then, I didn't have the breath, But that little piece of metal... it was more than just a gift. [Pre-Chorus] And when the world broke apart, in the wreck and the oil, And I was looking for a sign in the blood and the soil— My fingers found your ring, and I held on for life, A steady hand in the middle of the strife. [Chorus] Oh, you’re the butterfly, and I’m the one you saved Through the quiet storms and the paths I paved. "Nothing is the end," I whispered the line, To heal your own heart while you were healing mine. Two different worlds, but you’re the one who stays, The only real thing in these blurred-out days. [Verse 2] Then Paris in the March rain, gray and cold, The kind of story that doesn't need to be told. You said you had to leave, that the noise was too loud, That you couldn’t find your soul in this faceless crowd. It hit me so hard to see that mist in your eyes, So I stripped away the mask, I stripped away the lies. "Go find your healing," I said, though it hurt, As the "Bye Love" lingered like a prayer in the dirt. [Bridge] I saw that harbor photo, I saw your quiet place, And I felt the distance, and I felt the grace. So I mirrored back your peace, a sign across the sea, To tell you that your silence... it matters to me. No labels, no titles, just this pull in my chest, A secret connection that won't let me rest. [Chorus] Oh, you’re the butterfly, and I’m the one you saved Through the quiet storms and the paths I paved. "Nothing is the end," I whispered the line, To heal your own heart while you were healing mine. [Outro] I’m still holding that keychain, the metal is thin, A place where the healing can finally begin. Fly away, butterfly... just fly. I'll keep a watch... as time passes by. [End]
