No Me Debes Nada

I saw you walk away without looking back
Like love was just a borrowed coat
You left the smoke, you left the jazz
And a promise poorly spoken

I didn’t shout, I didn’t ask for forgiveness
I learned to keep my silence
Some defeats sound better
When they’re left unexplained

I don’t hold a grudge
I just learned to breathe without your voice

You don’t owe me anything
Not a single word more
What hurt, now sings on its own
In the middle of my peace
You don’t owe me anything
Not even to come back
If I was ever your home
Now I’m the light that fades behind

My hands know what it was to love
Even though time changed the shape
Not all wounds bleed
Some teach you how to walk

There are long nights like an empty bar
Where the memory asks for another song
I serve it slowly, without a sound
And I say goodbye

I don’t curse you, love
I just let go of what didn’t return

You don’t owe me anything
Not a single word more
What hurt, now sings on its own
In the middle of my peace
You don’t owe me anything
Not even to come back
If I was ever your home
Now I’m the light that fades behind

If you ask about me
Tell them I’m still here
Whole

You don’t owe me anything
Just listen well
Sometimes losing it all
Is like being born again
