Verse
It’s always late at night
My mind is holding on too tight
Waiting for your call to break the silence
Even though I cry until my eyes run dry
The story never seems to change
You only come when you're alone and cold
But I'm just a temporary escape
From a life you'll never break
Chorus
You said you lost the spark with her
But you never loved me enough to leave her for my sake
I surrendered it all, just to play the game you made
You locked me in a cage, but I still couldn't break free
But who am I to ask to be part of your life?
After all, I'm just a shadow hidden from your light
Verse 2
You refused every gift that I brought
Afraid of every trace, afraid of every thought
I spent my birthdays alone in the fading light
While you were with her, surrounded by the crowd that night
We have matching ink where no one ever sees
A hidden secret meant for you and me
I truly believed our love was strong enough
To stand against the world when everything got rough
Chorus
You said you lost the spark with her
But you never loved me enough to leave her for my sake
I surrendered it all, just to play the game you made
You locked me in a cage, but I still couldn't break free
But who am I to ask to be part of your life?
After all, I'm just a shadow hidden from your light
Bridge
Singing our song as the city lights go dark
Stealing kiss after kiss beneath the parking lights
Held in your arms when no one else is around
I canceled all my plans, just waiting for a sign from you
Just to steal one more moment before the night ends
Am I foolish to call this devotion?
Or just drowning in my own emotion?
Final chorus
Your face is fading every time I miss you
Not a single photo left behind in my phone
Never thought I'd be trapped in an affair built on lies
If I leave, will there be any trace of us left on you?
Or am I the only one who carries the scars?
Still, I wish I were the one to hold you when you fall apart
Hiding in the dark, out of everyone’s sight
Stealing time that was never meant to be mine
