Lyrics

**[Verse 1]** Seven years in the shadows, loving you from afar, Kept it locked in my chest like a fading star. Finally spilled my heart, words tumbling out raw, But you looked at me gentle, said "just like a sister," that's all. **[Pre-Chorus]** Twisted words hung in the air, sparked a foolish flame, "Maybe when I'm older," you said, playing that game. I held on through the waiting, years blurring to dust, Hoping time would rewrite us, turn "sister" to "us." **[Chorus]** But I asked one more time, voice breaking in the night, "Do you like me like that?" You shut down the light. "No," just "no," and the silence swallowed me whole, Four months later, May fourth, cracked open my soul. **[Verse 2]** Saw your story light up, a hand intertwined, Her fingers in yours, the truth I couldn't find. Messages confirming, girlfriend in your glow, Highlights pinned forever, where our maybe used to go. **[Pre-Chorus]** You standing there beaming, smile I've never known, Bursting into laughter, happiness fully grown. That joy behind the screen, it pierced like a knife, Eyes burning inside, stealing breath from my life. **[Chorus]** I asked one more time, voice breaking in the night, "Do you like me like that?" You shut down the light. "No," just "no," and the silence swallowed me whole, Four months later, May fourth, cracked open my soul. **[Bridge]** The laugh echoes endless, your face lit so bright, Pain twisting with wonder—what if I'd fought right? Seven years faded to ashes, her hand in your world, I'm left with the embers, watching love unfurl. **[Outro]** Eyes burning, still burning... from that smile I never earned. Seven years silent... now finally learned. ***
