She walked in with a story ready
Heavy name, sharp disguise
Said the truth lives in reflections
But her mirror's full of lies
Pictures dated, moments twisted
Promises left on the floor
She swears I was the beginning
But I was already someone's home before

I saw fear behind her confidence
When the doubt reached me
Love doesn't grow from chaos
Or public sympathy

She says I crossed a line I never knew
Says her tears belong to me
But the love I go back home to
Knows exactly who I am, who I'll always be
They call her Billie Jean in the headlines
Like a story they've seen before
But the truth ain't dancing in the spotlight
It's sleeping at home behind a closed door

Letters left at my doorway
Whispers turning into noise
She wants a face for the blame
A stage, a scene, a louder voice
While I'm walking back home
With a tired heart, steady ground
Between the chaos outside
And the silence where love is found

You don't ask, you just look
And I answer without a sound
Loyalty isn't an argument
It's how I stand my ground

She says I crossed a line I never knew
Says her scars were made by me
But the love I go back home to
Never questioned what she sees
They whisper Billie Jean like it's the truth
Like a name can change what's real
But lies don't survive the night
When something honest is what you feel

If the world needs a villain
They can write another role
My commitment doesn't shake
It doesn't sell my soul

She says I crossed a line I never knew
But lies don't make a man
They can say Billie Jean a thousand times
Still won't change where I stand
It's not my story
Not my song to defend
The truth has a name, a home
And it sleeps with me again and again

Not my song
Not my name
