still want you

(Verse 1)   I still replay it…   Every word, every look — they circle my head,   You said “we’re better off,” and walked off instead.   Now the silence feels louder than it’s ever been,   It talks in your voice, it wears your skin.   You were lust, I was love, that’s the hardest truth,   We were lightning up our own way to future like a top row bottle, burnin’ out too soon.   I keep typing your name just to delete it again,   I got ghosts in my drafts that Sdßsß start with “hey, friend…”   (Pre-Chorus)   I wanted truth, you wanted a thrill,   I wanted hearts, you wanted chills.   And it kills me —   ‘Cause I still want you, and it feels so real,   like pain is the only thing left I can feel.   (Hook)   I still wanted you.   Even when you walked like I meant nothin’ at all,   Even when love became just another downfall.   Tell me, if I said it out loud, would you stay?   …Or would you just turn, and walk away?   (Verse 2)   You ever love someone who never looked back?   Like talkin’ to echoes that don’t talk back.   I built a future, you just played the part,   Now I’m rehearsin’ closure in an empty heart.   Maybe I was too much for your little adventure,   Maybe my forever didn’t fit your picture.   But I still bleed you into every line,   Every rhyme, every sleepless night.   (Bridge)   I don’t hate you — that’d be too easy,   I just wish loving me came easy.   I wish I could tell you the truth I hide,   That every “I’m fine” was a suicide.   (Outro)   So yeah, you left — I still wanted you.   Not the fantasy, the you that was true.   Maybe that’s love, or maybe it’s pain,   But either way, it’s got your name in the flame? and how i feel remains the same .
