Lyric

You passed me by like I was made of air

Eyes locked to glass, like I was never there

Laughed so loud beside someone new

Didn’t flinch when I whispered “Hey, you”

I reached with hope, but you didn’t see

Already walking past the ghost of me

No trace of the nights we used to feel

Like love was fiction, never real

I used to shake at every silence

Drown in echoes, crave your guidance

Now I just watch the clouds roll wide

And hold my peace where pain can’t hide

I’ve grown used to quiet storms

Found strength in breaking from the norms

You won’t see the hurt I tame

I wear the calm, not the flame

I’m not scared maybe, of your retreat

Not afraid to stand on different streets

The fire’s gone and so are you

I stopped chasing what wasn’t true

You can be distant, you can be blind

But I’ve untangled you from my mind

I’m not scared maybe, I’ve known the fall

I don’t need you to feel tall

You say my name like it’s dust in your mouth

Eyes looking down, words drifting south

You shut off the song that made us whole

Like erasing rhythm could cleanse your soul

You glance away like I’m too loud

Like our past should not be proud

But I’ve carved your silence in my bones

And turned that void into my home

I used to run to every lie

Now I walk and don’t ask why

Perfected grace behind this face

Even in my loneliest place

I’ve rehearsed a brighter shade

While inside the edges fade

But still I stand, still I breathe

Even if I softly grieve

I’m not scared maybe, of being alone

Not afraid of the love you’ve outgrown

You bury truth in veils and smoke

But I’ve unlearned the words you spoke

You can vanish, erase my name

But I won’t play your hollow game

I’m not scared maybe, I’ve built my ground

And I won’t fall when you’re not around

I know how to stare through your disguise

Smile as the tear refuses to rise

I’ve made peace in fractured light

Even when day turns into night

I don’t need closure, don’t need why

I’ve found a way to let this die

You thought I’d beg or break again

But I’m my own beginning and end

I’m not scared maybe, of what you lack

Not afraid of the love you won’t give back

You showed your worst and called it fair

But I found strength in your despair

You can forget me, paint me gone

But I’ll still rise with every dawn

I’m not scared maybe, I’m finally free

You don’t own the rest of me

I’m not scared maybe, not this time

You lost your place in what was mine

I locked the door and cast the key

I’m not scared maybe—I’m finally me
