You didn’t do a thing wrong
I won’t pretend you did
Some moments just arrive
Before we know what they’ll become

I mistook the warmth for direction
Let it linger longer than it should
That wasn’t something you created
I just held it past its place

So I named it where it stood
Without asking it to move
I carried it till it broke me
And I finally told the truth

I’m not losing you
I’m just putting you back
Where the rest of the world is
In that background light
Yeah, the background light

You were never something missing
Never something I was owed
Just a chapter that went quiet
When I finally let it close

Kindness leaves a trace sometimes
Even when it doesn’t mean to
I held onto what it stirred
Longer than the moment rang true

I don’t need you to answer
I don’t need you to explain
This was never about you staying
It was about me staying sane

I stopped mistaking silence
For something left unsaid
Some things don’t ask for answers
They just need to be named

I’m not losing you
I’m just putting you back
Where the rest of the world is
In that background light
Yeah, the background light

You were never something missing
Just a moment passing through
Something honest, something human
That I didn’t need to keep hold of

There’s no door left open
No words I need returned
I’m walking with my balance now
From what it cost to learn

I can see you clearly now
And I don’t need to hold you

I’m not losing you
I’m just stepping back
Into my own footing
Into my own life
In the background light

You don’t carry my meaning
You don’t pull me off course
You were part of the moment
Not the way forward

Some names belong to seasons
Not to every day
You’re still there in the distance
Just not in my way
In the background light
