Good Without You by David Kastling Music

Lyrics

You walked in like the sun, lit up the room
But you left shadows behind every time you moved
Told me I was lucky just to be by your side
But I spent most nights wondering why I cried

You loved the mirror more than me
Used my heart just to feel seen
Called it love, but it felt more like a game
And somehow I always took the blame

So go ahead and tell your friends I lost you
Spin the truth, I know that's what you do
But I'm not broken, I'm just free
I finally learned to care for me
You'll say I changed, and yeah, that's true
I'm just good without you

You kept score like love was a war
Said "you're too sensitive," then slammed the door
Your silence was sharp, your words even worse
But I stayed too long, thinking I was cursed

You loved the drama more than peace
Wrote your hurt in bold, erased my needs
You needed someone soft to bruise
I needed someone else to choose

So go ahead and tell your friends I lost you
Spin the truth, I know that's what you do
But I'm not bitter, I'm just wise
I found the truth behind your lies
You'll say I changed, and yeah, that's true
I'm just good without you

No hard feelings, just lessons learned
No more bridges left to burn
Hope you find what you pretend to be
But don't come back looking for me

So go ahead and tell your friends I lost you
Write your story, paint me blue
But I'm not broken, not even bruised
Just finally done being used
You'll say I changed, and yeah, that's true
I'm just good... so good without you
