Lyric

You call it over, I call it aftermath

You kept the last word, I kept hearing it back

You polished your version till it looked like the truth

Left all of the damage in the shadow of you

Put your doubt in my mouth, put your blame on my name

Made my silence look like I agreed with the pain

But quiet was survival, never permission

To erase what I lived and replace it with fiction

You spoke so softly, they believed every line

Turned your fear into fact, turned your fault into mine

I wasn’t disappearing, I was learning to listen

For the voice you kept burying under your version

Now the noise is getting quieter

And my voice is coming through

You don’t get to choose my ending

Just because you spoke it first

Your story, my song

You got me all wrong

You wrote me out in silence

I was here all along

Your story, my song

You had the last word

Tell it any way you want

The rest of this is mine

Mine

The rest of this is mine

Mine

I was here all along

I wore your explanation like a coat in July

Too heavy for the weather, too familiar to deny

Every room that I entered, your echo got there first

So I learned how to smile while I swallowed every word

They said, “Let it go,” like the truth had no weight

Like forgiveness meant forgetting what you tried to recreate

But I don’t need revenge, I don’t need you to confess

I just needed my own name outside of your address

Now I walk through the places where I used to feel small

I don’t lower my eyes, I don’t answer your call

You can keep the old picture, the frame and the lies

I’m no longer the woman you could edit to size

Now the noise is getting quieter

And my voice is coming through

You don’t get to choose my ending

Just because you spoke it first

Your story, my song

You got me all wrong

You wrote me out in silence

I was here all along

Your story, my song

You had the last word

Tell it any way you want

The rest of this is mine

Mine

The rest of this is mine

Mine

I was here all along

I don’t need to burn the pages

I don’t need to prove you lied

I just needed space between us

So I could hear myself inside

Every scar became a sentence

Every breath became a sign

You can keep the way you tell it

But the future voice is mine

Your story

My song

You got me

All wrong

Your story, my song

You got me all wrong

You wrote me out in silence

I was here all along

Your story, my song

You had the last word

Tell it any way you want

The rest of this is mine

Your story, my song

I’m singing it out loud

I don’t need your permission

I don’t need it from the crowd

Tell it any way you want

I know what I survived

You can keep the old story

The rest of this is mine

Mine

The rest of this is mine

I was here

I was here all along

Your story

My song

The rest of this is mine
