I caught your shadow in the neon glow

Your laugh a dagger, it struck me slow

Beside you someone new, their hand in yours

My heart hit rewind, reopening old doors

You saw me freeze like a ghost in the crowd

Your eyes held a question, silent but loud

Should I wave, should I speak or just disappear

The weight of your gaze pulls me near

Will I say hi or let the silence reign

Do I fake a smile or show the pain

The past and present collide in this view

You're with someone else but I'm still with you

The streetlight flickers, a nervous beat

I shuffle my steps, unsure on my feet

Your smile falters, you know this is raw

The air's so thick, it's cutting to the core

Maybe I'll nod, just a whisper of grace

Or walk away without leaving a trace

Every choice feels wrong, every step unsure

How did we get here, how'd we endure

Will I say hi or let the silence reign

Do I fake a smile or show the pain

The past and present collide in this view

You're with someone else but I'm still with you
