Genre: Probably pop

A/N: Guess who's excessively streaming 'You Let Me Down' by Alessia Cara again, but this time it's 2024 😅


1ST VERSE:

Long gone are the days of our hopes for post-2024

I'm well assured it's nothing like before

But these days we don't talk anymore

You cut off contact, left me lost in the shore

What a natural disaster, the most resilient storm

What will occur after? Did you lose interest? Am I a bore?

After all, what are friends for?


CHORUS:

I'll gaslight myself to believe that I'm okay with this

Delusional enough, that my ignorance is bliss

Unsure of what I should be perceiving

A failed friendship is what I'm grieving

I once couldn't imagine life without you in it

But it seems that it's now what I'm living


2ND VERSE:

Tell me, am I the villain to think you were one to betray

Writing this song to voice out my total dismay

Plotting every way to get you back

But I know it doesn't function like that

I tell myself that you're just busy

You didn't mean to leave me deliberately

Perhaps it's not the truth, or is it really?

How is it that we shattered apart so easily?

What was once once Sweet Misery is no longer sweet

It's plainly just misery


CHORUS:

I'll gaslight myself to believe that I'm okay with this

Delusional enough, that my ignorance is bliss

Unsure of what I should be perceiving

A failed friendship is what I'm grieving

I once couldn't imagine life without you in it

But it seems that it's now what I'm living

Tell me, am I the villain? Is it all now jaded, forever faded?

A tad too degraded, I guess I'm the villain


BRIDGE:

Oh what a cliffhanger you've left me in

It's something I can't quite comprehend

And I'm too scared of the depth

It's my dignity that I should've kept

Please tell me what I've done wrong

Or is it something you're going through?

Is the friendship we once had a lost cause?

I reckon that I no longer know you


CHORUS:

I'll gaslight myself to believe that I'm okay with this

Delusional enough, that my ignorance is bliss

Unsure of what I should be perceiving

A failed friendship is what I'm grieving

I once couldn't imagine life without you in it

But it seems that it's now what I'm living

Tell me, am I the villain? 

Was your motive intentional or am I mistaken?

Tell me, am I the villain? Is that why you've left me forsaken?


( OUTRO is to be decided later cause idk yet )
