Lyrics:

Verse 1
You liked the way I made you laugh,
But never asked what made me cry.
You held me close when it was good,
But vanished when I questioned why.
You wanted me when I was light,
But dimmed me when I dimmed too soon.
You touched my hand like I was yours,
Then left me spinning out of tune.
Pre-Chorus

I bent in ways I shouldn’t bend,
But you were gone before the end.
Chorus

‘Cause loving me was optional,
You said it all without a word.
You picked me up like I was casual,
Then dropped me like I’d never hurt.
You played with hearts like vinyl tracks,
Skipped the soul, then faded back.
I gave my all, you kept it nominal —
Yeah, to you
Loving me was optional.
Verse 2

I traced the lines of all your moods,
But mine were left in shades of grey.
You said, “I’m just not built for this,”
But built your life and walked away.
You needed love with no demands,
You loved the chase, not where it led.
I was a flame you wouldn’t fan —
Just warmth until the fire bled.
Pre-Chorus

And now you wear your guilt so clean,
While I replay the in-between.
Chorus

Yeah, loving me was optional,
Like something tried, not something kept.
I held on tight, irrational —
While you just smiled and sidestepped.
You filled your world with plans and noise,
While I held on to broken voice.
I wasn’t first, I wasn’t fall —
To you,
Loving me was optional.
Bridge

But love is not a passing test,
It's more than showing up half-dressed.
I was never just a scene —
I was real, and you were lean.
Final Chorus

So loving me was optional,
But breaking me was guaranteed.
I would've stayed unconditional,
You only stayed while it was easy.
Now you’re free, and I’m just truth,
You chose escape, I chose the proof.
It’s written in the way you stalled —
That to you,
Loving me… was optional.
Outro

But not to me.
Not at all.
To you,
Loving me was optional.
