I swear I heard you speak
I swear you were whispering so sweet
While you danced under the moonlight
In my familiar fantasy
I wanted you to stay beside me
With every fever dream
Where your memory rings out like notes played on every string
You were my soundtrack
Playing on repeat
Every word you sang to me
Always kept me hanging
Until you find another reason to leave
I hope you'll keep a part of me
Tugging at your heartstrings
Maybe at another place and time
Is what you sold me
As the last remaining promise that
I know you wouldn't keep
I let myself get carried away
On the words that hold no weight
It's funny how you changed
The more I felt the same
You were my soundtrack
Playing on repeat
Every word you sang to me
Always kept me hanging
Until you find another reason to leave
I hope you'll keep a part of me
Tugging at your heartstrings
I'll tattoo a heart to my left arm
So I'll never worry when I lose it all
Over again
And I'll pretend this hollow feeling
Wasn't left with me at birth
And now that I'm done accepting your worst
This skipped beat will always be my curse
Always be my curse
You were my soundtrack that was
Playing on repeat
Every word you sang to me
No longer leaves me hanging
And I know you'll never keep a part of me
And you'll never take the heart sewn
On my sleeve
