You Left and I Stayed

You took the sun when you walked away,
Left me drowning in yesterday.
The walls still whisper how you laughed,
Now every sound just breaks me in half.

I keep your sweater on my chair,
Like you're still coming home from somewhere.
But all these ghosts won't let me breathe,
And I don't know who I’m supposed to be.

You left and I stayed,
Frozen in the mess we made.
Every tear’s a memory,
Every breath still aches for “we.”
I try to move, but my heart stays—
You left...
You left and I stayed.

I talk to shadows late at night,
Pretend they're you to feel alright.
I play our songs, but turn them low,
‘Cause they hit too hard and I still don't know...

Why forever fell apart,
Why I can't mend my shattered heart.
I’d give the rest of all my days
Just to see your face again.

You left and I stayed,
Buried in the love we gave.
Every dream just ends in tears,
You're not gone—you're just not here.
I walk alone where we once laid…
You left…
You left and I stayed.

I count the stars like broken time,
Wishing I could rewrite goodbye.
But you’re the line I can’t erase,
The empty space I still embrace.

You left and I stayed,
Holding on to all you gave.
If love could bring you back again,
I'd trade it all, I'd reach the end.
But I just cry in the bed we made…
You left…
You left… and I stayed.
