Did You Think He'd Go Away?

[Verse 1]
Did you think he was the kind of soul
Who'd simply turn and go?
Did you think he stopped having things to say,
With all that truth still waiting in his throat?
[Pre-Chorus]
You drew your lines and called them facts,
But every story leaves a track.
[Chorus]
Did you think he'd go away?
Did you think he'd fade to yesterday?
Your false narratives don't change what stays—
Did you think he'd go away?
[Verse 2]
You shut the door, you changed the names,
You hoped the room would look the same.
But silence isn't proof of peace,
And every buried word can find release.
[Pre-Chorus]
You drew your lines and called them facts,
But every story leaves a track.
[Chorus]
Did you think he'd go away?
Did you think he'd fade to yesterday?
Your false narratives don't change what stays—
Did you think he'd go away?
[Bridge]
No, a voice can cross the distance,
No, the truth can hold its place.
You can turn your face against him,
Still the words won't leave the page.
[Final Chorus]
Did you think he'd go away?
Did you think he'd fade to yesterday?
Your false narratives don't change what stays—
Did you think he'd go away?
No, did you think he'd go away?
[Outro]
Did you think he'd go away?
