The Panic of You

Verse 1

It started as a sleepless night

scrolling thoughts I couldn’t name

just me and the glow of blue light

trying not to feel the same

Then the music cut through silence

like it knew exactly where I was

pulled me out of overthinking

just enough to feel the rush

I met the best thing that happened to me

like a melody I didn’t know I needed

something soft in the chaos of my mind

something I could believe in

—

Pre-Chorus

But when we part

it starts again

that shaking feeling underneath my skin

—

Chorus

“I’m sorry, don’t leave me

I want you here with me

I can’t breathe, I’m so weak

don’t tell me that your love is gone…”

I know I sound like a lot

like a storm that won’t stop

but it’s real, it’s deep

it’s the fear I can’t drop

I’ll always panic about you

like I’m one wrong word away

from watching everything we built

just fade away

—

Verse 2

I replay every message

every pause, every tone

trying to find the moment

I accidentally let go

And I hate that I need reassurance

like it’s air in my lungs

but when you mean everything

silence feels too long

—

Chorus

“I’m sorry, don’t leave me

I want you here with me

I can’t breathe, I’m so weak

don’t tell me that your love is gone…”

I don’t want to lose you

but I don’t know how to hold

something so warm in my hands

without thinking it’ll go cold

—

Bridge

So I hold on too tight

then I’m scared I’m holding wrong

caught between “please stay”

and pretending I’m strong
