👣 Here is my third single: "We Were Kids" – from the album:
💔 « One Sided Love » 💔

✨Song Description – “We Were Kids”
From the album “One Sided Love”
Genre: Emotional Pop Rock | Indie Ballad | Slowburn Heartbreak
BPM: 90-105✨

“We Were Kids” is a bittersweet reflection on a love that faded, not through betrayal — but through quiet distance, unspoken truths, and the slow drift of time.
It captures the ache of growing up together, but not growing together.

💬 Core Meaning:
This song asks: “How did something that felt like forever… slip away?”
It’s not about blame — it’s about the quiet unraveling that happens when comfort replaces connection, and routine replaces passion.

🧠 What the song explores:

🔹 Emotional erosion
It’s the kind of heartbreak that doesn’t come from fights — but from silence, distance, and walking on eggshells in your own home.

🔹 The contrast of past and present
The lyrics recall messy, joyful beginnings — dancing in the rain, stolen kisses, chaos and laughter — and mourn the stillness that came later.
A love once alive, now just existing.

🔹 Unspoken grief
The couple stays together, but they both know something’s missing. There’s no hate. Just absence.
“We were kids… and maybe we should’ve stayed that way.”

🔹 Emotional maturity without resolution
This isn’t about slamming the door — it’s about recognizing the quiet sadness of staying in something that no longer feeds your soul.
It’s a whispered goodbye that may never be spoken aloud.

🎧 Perfect for listeners who love:
• Storytelling ballads
• Songs about emotional distance
• Reflective, nostalgic heartbreak with lyrical depth
• Artists like Dermot Kennedy, Lizzy McAlpine, Taylor Swift (Folklore/Evermore), James Bay, P!nk

Perfect for fans of emotional, edgy pop-rock ballads with substance.
