# 🎧 I BELIEVED IN US 💔 **🎤 Intro** Maely, I don't think you ever understood, How much our friendship meant to me, how much I thought we could, I thought we'd always stick together, you and me, But now I'm asking myself if I ever meant anything to you, really… **🎶 Verse 1 — When It All Began** At first, you were my best friend, my sister at heart, I would've done anything for you, even when we were apart, Then you fell in love, and all you saw was him, You pushed me to the side, and everything felt dim. You were always chasing him, he was all that mattered, I was standing right beside you, feeling lonely and shattered, I told you he was asking for nudes, doing things that felt wrong, I was only trying to protect you, not to break your love song. But when I told you the truth, you didn't wanna hear, He said I wanted to ruin things, and you believed him over me, my dear, He told his side of the story, and you chose to believe, I was supposed to be your best friend, but you doubted me. **💔 Verse 2 — When You Came Back** Then one day you came back, spamming me all day, You were giving me those big views, I thought you'd come to stay, I thought maybe our friendship still meant something to you, That after everything we'd been through, we could start anew. And that same night, Maely, you asked me something sweet, "Do you wanna be my girlfriend?" My heart skipped a beat, I was happier than ever, I could hardly believe, I thought our story was beginning, something real for you and me. **🎶 Chorus — The Words That Hurt** You asked me to be yours, then you changed your mind, You said, "I'm not ready," so I gave you all the time, I said, "Take your time, it's okay, I understand," I didn't wanna pressure you, I just wanted to hold your hand. Then I found out you were with a guy, how am I supposed to feel? I was waiting for you to be ready, thinking what we had was real, You said you weren't ready, so I thought I had to wait, But you were already with somebody else — was I just too late? **🌧️ Verse 3 — Now** And now you give me big views, like everything's okay, You keep watching my life, but I don't know what you're trying to say, You made me hope for something that I truly wanted to be, Now I'm stuck here wondering what you really felt for me. Did you mean it when you asked me if I wanted to be yours? Or did you change your mind as soon as you opened up that door? I don't blame you for loving him, you can love who you choose, But why did you give me hope if I was always gonna lose? And then there's our friendship, the one I can't forget, Even after all this heartbreak, I don't wanna lose it yet, But I can't pretend your words never hurt me deep inside, When you called me your girlfriend, I believed you, I won't lie. **🖤 Bridge — Soft, Almost Crying** I believed you when you said that you weren't ready, I respected all your feelings, tried to keep my heart steady, I told you, "Take your time," 'cause I didn't wanna lose you, But I never thought the truth would hurt the way it used to. You were my best friend before all this pain, The one I'd tell my secrets to, through sunshine and rain, I don't wanna force you to love me, I won't make you stay, I just wanna know why you gave me hope and took it all away. **🎤 Final Chorus — More Emotional** You asked me to be yours, then you changed your mind, I was dreaming about us, while you left it all behind, I told you, "Take your time," I gave you room to choose, Now you're with him, and I don't know what to think or do. And those big views you give me, I wonder what they mean, Do you ever think about me, or am I just a memory? I wish I could get my best friend back, the way we used to be, But I can't erase the pain just because you come back to me. **🎧 Outro — Whispered** Maely… you were my best friend. When you asked me to be your girlfriend, I meant it. When you said you weren't ready, I understood. But when I found out you were with him… I finally understood something that hurts to see: **Sometimes you can lose someone without ever really getting the chance to be with them.** 💔
