Still love you
by Red Dawn
Lyrics
Mm, yeah
I knew the shadows wore your name
Still I reached out anyway
You came like a secret in the rain
Sweet on my tongue, but poison in your veins
I read the signs, then I let them fade
Thought I was safe in the games you played
Your hands were a promise made of smoke
Your words were a flame that I couldn’t hold
Now every memory hits like a wave
I hate the truth, but I love you
And I know you were never mine
But my heart don’t listen to my mind
I can feel you in the static light
Calling me back through the night
I fell in love with a lie, but I still want you
Even when the truth cuts through
I miss your voice, I miss your fire
Miss the way you lit my wires
If you came back, I’d let you in
Even knowing how this ends
I fell in love with a lie, but I still want you
Yeah, I still want you
I keep your ghost in the back of my chest
Like a song I hate but I know the rest
I swear I’m done, then I check my phone
Hoping your name brings me back home
You were the dark in a neon frame
The kind of wrong that still feels the same
I should let go, but I don’t know how
I’m missing the future I dreamed about
[Pre-Chorus - building tension, echo trails, synth lift, breathy doubles]
And I know you were never mine
But my heart don’t listen to my mind
I can feel you in the static light
Calling me back through the night
[Chorus - explosive full-spectrum drop, heavy bass, soaring vocal layers, reverbed ad-libs]
I fell in love with a lie, but I still want you
Even when the truth cuts through
I miss your voice, I miss your fire
Miss the way you lit my wires
If you came back, I’d let you in
Even knowing how this ends
I fell in love with a lie, but I still want you
Yeah, I still want you
[Bridge - stripped-back piano, distant atmospheric pads, vulnerable lead vocal]
Tell me why the hurt feels like home
Why your absence still pulls me close
I can’t undo what I believed
But I can’t stop what I need
[Final Chorus / Outro - cinematic EDM rise, huge bass swell, echo-drenched vocals, fading synths]
I fell in love with a lie, but I still want you
Even when the truth cuts through
I miss your voice, I miss your fire
Miss the way you lit my wires
If you came back, I’d let you in
Even knowing how this ends
I fell in love with a lie, but I still want you
Yeah, I still want you
[Outro - dark ambient decay, vinyl hiss, distant vocal echo]
Still want you
Still want you
Even if you were never true
