Lyrics

[Intro]
Pencil lines under skin where you erased me
Quiet page, but the pressure still shows through

[Verse 1]
You said the night was softer than I wrote
Made my mouth a margin, thin and closed
I crossed my name in lighter blue
Rubbed the page until the letters ghosted
The mirror tipped and gave me back your pose

[Build]

[Chorus]
But my handwriting lives under your whiteout
Grooves in the paper reading me like proof
You changed the wording, never moved the fallout
I was there — I know what's true
The glass stops lying when I stand and face it
Footprints spell my name across the room
You can blur the ink, but you can’t replace it
I was there — I know what's true (I know what's true)

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
I kept folding corners till it fit your ending
Practiced saying “maybe” till I disappeared
Still the floor held my weight like a sentence
In the dust, my shoes signed what happened here

[Build 2]

[Chorus 2]
My handwriting bleeds through every cover
Pressure marks cut louder than your gloss
You can’t crop me out or tilt the mirror
I was there — I know what's true
Ground keeps witness where I planted both feet
Footprints in the dust refuse the loss
You don’t get to edit me out of my story
I was there — I know what's true (I know what's true)

[Drop 2]

[Breakdown]
I stop apologizing to the page
Let silence circle what you tried to smooth
I was there — I know what's true

[Final Build]

[Final Drop]

[Outro]
Ink stands firm and the mirror stands still
I was there — I know what's true
