Don’t Forget Who Made You

Verse 1 (him, obsessive & scared) I saw you on the corner, smoking in the rain You don’t look like the girl I broke, but I know that pain Eyes like ice, lips like knives, You move like a storm with a thousand lives I want to touch you, want to call your name Want to pretend nothing changed But something in your shadow, something in your stare Tells me you’re a force I shouldn’t dare Pre-Chorus God, I created a monster in your skin And now I’m the one trembling within Chorus Don’t forget who made you this I see the fire, I feel the abyss I want you, I fear you, I need you still But you’re no one I could ever kill You burn like hell and smile at me A ruler of what I can’t set free Verse 2 (him, obsessive) I remember bathroom floors, mascara running wild Said I’d never hurt you… I was lying all the while You swallowed pain and spit out truth Turned heartbreak into unbroken proof I follow rumors, whisper your name I try to catch you, but it’s a losing game Every laugh, every shadow, every goddamn street Reminds me I’m nothing beneath your feet Pre-Chorus I thought I broke you… But now I’m the one broken in two Chorus Don’t forget who made you this The girl who strikes, the ghost I missed I crave you, I fear you, I ache for more But you’re a world I can’t explore You burn like hell and smile at me A ruler of what I can’t set free Bridge (him, fully obsessed & terrified) I watch from corners, I follow your scent I dream of endings that never relent I can’t sleep, can’t eat, can’t fight I just want you… even though you might Destroy me, shatter me, leave me in flames I built you… and I love the blame Verse 3 (her, final response looming) She stops. Looks straight at me. A smirk, sharp and slow. And the world feels like it freezes She says: "You didn’t make me… you made sure I’d never need you." Final Chorus (him, shattered & obsessed) I can’t forget… I can’t move… I can’t forgive… She’s everything I wanted and feared I want her back, but she’s disappeared She’s fire, she’s shadow, she’s my worst nightmare Outro (her, cold, untouchable) And as she walks away, her voice slices the night: "Goodbye isn’t for you, it’s for me."
