Never Was
Create a moody alt-pop track blending dark ambient textures with a catchy electro-pop beat. Use deep, atmospheric synth pads and subtle, pulsating bass to build tension. Incorporate sparse, punchy electronic drums with syncopated rhythms. Vocals should be intimate and breathy, layered with soft reverb and haunting harmonies. The arrangement should flow dynamically—minimal and ethereal during verses, building into fuller, lush choruses with shimmering synth leads and emotional depth. Capture a sense of bittersweet melancholy mixed with confident strength. Strong female vocals

Lyrics
Verse 1
You say you couldn’t hold onto me
But you never really tried to see
Loved the picture inside your head
Not the woman standing there instead
Spoke of forever like it was ours
But it was smoke, not burning stars
Now I know, it’s clear because
It was all just fantasy, and never was
Pre-Chorus
I tried to be your light in the dark
But you were lost before we could start
Chorus
You said forever, but it never was
Just a shadow of a love you lost
I gave my heart, but it never touched
’Cause what you wanted, baby, never was
Verse 2
You said it hit you like lightning
But your love was only writing
On pages where you played your part
Without ever holding my heart
All the lovers of the world
Know that love’s alive, it’s more than words
But yours stayed inside because
It was all just fantasy, and never was
Pre-Chorus
I tried to be your light in the dark
But you were lost before we could start
Chorus
You said forever, but it never was
Just a shadow of a love you lost
I gave my heart, but it never touched
’Cause what you wanted, baby, never was
Bridge
I watched you fade inside your dream
We slipped away behind the screen
And there was nothing left to say
When you weren’t really here with me
There was nothing I could do
To pull your fantasy through
Chorus
You said forever, but it never was
Just a shadow of a love you lost
I gave my heart, but it never touched
’Cause what you wanted, baby, never was
Outro
Never was
Never was
