Lyrics
Verse I
There’s a truth I never saw approaching
a crack that caught me off my guard
it’s not anger not a storm exploding
just jealousy — and it hits me hard.
Not the kind that screams or plays a part
it’s the silence when I’m not the one
I chose you with my open heart
but you chose something else — and I’m undone.
Verse II
When you spoke of that time with your man
I stayed calm tried not to judge or fight
but something broke inside the plan
it wasn’t duty — it felt shared felt right.
And if it’s shared then it was wanted
and if it’s wanted I was left behind
not the drama that gets flaunted
just the ache of being unaligned.
🎵 Chorus
I feel like I’m on borrowed time
a love on lease a heart on hold
I search for a piece of you that’s mine
but find a “maybe” a “wait” a “cold”.
I don’t want easy choices made
I want the ones that take some grace
the kind that honor what we’ve been
and what we still could dare to face.
Verse III
Our story started in the absence
but slowly turned into a flame
now that emptiness has vanished
I wonder — do you still call my name?
We’re two in body but I feel split
like I’m a guest inside your skin
and when I ask for something real
I’m the one with the “faults within.”
🎵 Chorus (final variant)
I feel like I’m on borrowed time
a love on lease a heart on hold
I search for a piece of you that’s mine
but find a “maybe” a “wait” a “cold”.
I don’t want easy choices made
I want the ones that take some grace
the kind that honor what we’ve been
and what we still could dare to face.
If you dare… with me.
