I watch my name fade out your phone Like it was never written in stone One blink, one face, someone new And I'm already see-through to you I was there before the lights came on Before the sparks, before I was gone I held the weight you couldn't carry Now I'm just background, temporary You say nothing changed, but I feel it Your voice hits different when you say that name I'm still standing in the same place But somehow I'm the one you replaced Tell me, was I ever solid ground Or just a space you filled till someone came around? I don't scream, I don't fight I just disappear quietly every time I'm so easy to replace Like I never had a place One week, one smile, one touch And I'm suddenly too much You don't even look back When I'm cracking from the lack Of being chosen, being seen I was important, or so it seemed I memorize the way you pull away The silence growing louder every day You give that one what you swore was mine Your time, your care, your I'll be fine I don't hate that, that's the worst part I just hate how disposable I am Like my love was a demo track Easy to delete, never coming back I don't wanna cage you or control I just wanna know I still matter to your soul But every time someone new walks in I'm the one you stop choosing I'm so easy to replace Tell me why I know my place Always second, never first Always healing while it hurts You say: Don't take it that way But it hits me all the same I was important, I was real Now I'm just something you don't feel If I vanished tonight Would you even notice the space? Or would someone else be there Wearing my name, taking my place I don't wanna be unforgettable I just don't wanna be this forgettable Ah–ah Maybe one day I'll believe I'm not just someone you outgrow But right now I'm just the proof That loving you meant letting go Oh, I was important, just not enough Yeah, I was important, just not enough
