Some people leave your life...
But they never completely leave your heart.
I wrote "Soulmate" to explore one of the hardest questions I've ever asked myself:
If someone truly changed your life, do they stop being your soulmate simply because the relationship ended?
This song isn't about trying to win someone back.
It's about trying to understand the kind of love that continues to exist long after the conversations stop, the photos fade, and life moves in different directions.
Sometimes another person walks into our life when we need them most. They help us heal, believe in ourselves, and become someone stronger than we ever imagined. Even if they're no longer beside us, the person we've become is living proof they were once there.
That's the heart of "Soulmate."
It's a song about gratitude, longing, unanswered questions, and accepting that some relationships continue shaping us long after they've ended.
As Track 8 of the Game Over album, Soulmate stands as the emotional peak of the story. The excitement of falling in love has given way to reflection, grief, and the search for meaning. Rather than asking who was right or wrong, the song asks something quieter:
Can love leave... while its impact stays forever?
If this song reminded you of someone who changed your life...
I'd love to hear your story.

[Intro]
In my life's gallery, she was the crowning piece,
A love so vast, it's my heart's release.
Forest green gaze, a soulful pierce,
She's the masterpiece, my universe.
[Verse 1]
Darkness ruled my days, a maze with no end,
But her love, a torch, showed the path to mend.
She broke through the walls, with a force so stout,
In the labyrinth of my life, she found the way out.
[Pre-Chorus]
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? In the silence, I shout,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? It's her I can't live without.
[Chorus]
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? Even though she's gone,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? With her, I belong.
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? Now that she've flown,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? Or am I alone?
[Post-Chorus]
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? Echoes in the void,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? My heart's asteroid.
[Verse 2]
Her anger, fierce, yet it's my solace, my peace,
In its fiery depths, my fears cease.
She's my shelter, my rock, in life's worst fray,
My anchor, my best, perfection in disarray.
[Pre-Chorus]
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? Through the perfect storm,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? In her love, I transform.
[Chorus]
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? She's made living bearable,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? In this eternity, terrible.
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? She's my perfection,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? My life's direction.
[Post-Chorus]
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? In the rugged and sharp,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? She's my life's harp.
[Bridge]
In her, I found everything, a love so rare,
My soulmate, my best, a pair beyond compare.
In my heart's depth, "X marks the spot" so vast,
Her love's made its home, my best accomplishment, unsurpassed.
In her, I found my need, my rarest treasure,
My best, my love, my soulmate without measure.
In my heart's depth, she made her mark,
My greatest feat, my light in the dark.
[Verse 3]
But now she's gone, is our bond still the same?
Are we still soulmates, or just players in life's game?
In the echoes of "I love you," I search for a clue,
In the absence of her light, what am I to do?
[Outro]
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? In the love that's flown,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? Or am I now alone?
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? In the silence, I call,
Soulmate, are we still soulmate? Or is that all?
