Good At Leaving First new

Verse 1
You don’t hang pictures
You lean ‘em on the wall
Say it feels better
If it ain’t forever at all
Half-packed suitcase
On your side of the bed
Like you’re ready to leave
Before it’s even said

You laugh it off
Say that’s just who you are
But I’ve seen that look
Right before it falls apart

⸻

Pre-Chorus
It ain’t about me
It never was
You get too close
You start to run

⸻

Chorus
You’re good at leavin’ first
Keys already in your purse
Before forever gets a chance to work
You don’t say a word
Just say “it’s gonna hurt”
Then you’re already halfway gone
You don’t let it burn
You just cut the lights and turn
When it’s gettin’ too close to love
Yeah you’re good at leavin’ first

⸻

Verse 2
You’re starin’ at your phone
Like it’s sayin’ what to do
You say “we’ve been here before”
Like it ain’t me and you
Every little thing
Turns into “this ain’t it”
Like you’re scared of a feelin’
You ain’t felt yet

You’re reachin’ for your jacket
Before I can speak
Standin’ right here
But you’re already leavin’ me

⸻

Pre-Chorus
It ain’t me you’re fightin’
It’s that fear
Of fallin’ all the way in here

⸻

Chorus
You’re good at leavin’ first
Keys already in your purse
Before forever gets a chance to work
You don’t say a word
Just say “it’s gonna hurt”
Then you’re already halfway gone
You don’t let it burn
You just cut the lights and turn
When it’s gettin’ too close to love
Girl you’re good at leavin’ first

⸻

Bridge
What if I don’t chase
What if I stay
Long enough for you
To not run away
What if love don’t mean
Losin’ who you are
What if I’m still here
With my whole heart

⸻

Final Chorus
You’re good at leavin’ first
Keys already in your purse
Before forever gets a chance to work
You don’t say a word
Just say “it’s gonna hurt”
Then you’re already halfway gone
You don’t let it burn
You just cut the lights and turn
When it’s gettin’ too close to love
Yeah you’re good at leavin’ first
But I’m still here… if you ever don’t


Original lyrics and melody , suno used for final production. Every single starts with my own melody and lyrics and is built from that point I welcome your feedback

hey Curtis, I was able to cut and paste the link and heard the song, you got some great lines there!!! Could you perhaps post the lyrics here?

I'm not sure if you put the link up as an attachment or not, but I think you just copy and paste the link right here in the discussion.

Hi Curtis,

Sounds modern to me....  I like everything about it....
