Shadows on the ceiling trace a quiet sign
Breathing in the moment waiting for the line

I’ve been walking circles in a silent town
Footsteps drawing patterns trying not to drown
Every time I reach out colors seem to fade
Still I keep on hoping you might cut the shade

And all my thoughts are drifting
Like lanterns on the tide
If you could see inside them
You’d know what I can’t hide

Give me something real tonight
A spark that pulls me to your side
I’ve been holding out for a light
That finally feels like mine
Give me something real tonight
A rhythm that keeps me aligned
I’ve been waiting out for a sign
That tells me you’ll stay this time

You move like a whisper through the crowded room
Every subtle gesture shifts the way I bloom
I’m not searching for rescue not a perfect vow
Just a place where heartbeat meets the here and now

And all my thoughts are drifting
Like lanterns on the tide
If you could see inside them
You’d know what I can’t hide

Give me something real tonight
A spark that pulls me to your side
I’ve been holding out for a light
That finally feels like mine
Give me something real tonight
A rhythm that keeps me aligned
I’ve been waiting out for a sign
That tells me you’ll stay this time

If the night is honest
I might fall into your hands
Let the moment guide us
Where the quiet truth expands

I kept your echo in a borrowed chord
Faded at the edges like a prayer ignored
You never spoke in “forever” terms—
Only in glances only in turns

We drew lines in passing trains
Paused in motion looped refrains
What we had was quiet gold—
But time like steam refused to hold

So I won't chase the version of us
That never really stayed never fully was
You were a still life mid-collapse
A moving part in silent gaps
And I loved you there—
Where the light never dared
But lingered
Like it knew
We’d vanish fair

You hummed in keys I couldn’t trace
Left fingerprints on open space
A breath a shift a tilted frame
No villain here just untitled blame

Maps don’t cover scenes like this
Where lips forget what touch meant bliss
But if you ask what we became—
A shadow signed with no one’s name

I won't rewrite the note you played
Or tune the silence we conveyed
You were a still life breaking fast
A fleeting truth I couldn’t grasp
And I loved you there—
Not to repair—
But to remember
Without despair

Maybe we were best
in between intentions
Not a love song—
just the tension

Still life
in motion
Still life
Not frozen

Days stack up without asking
Deadlines talk before we do
Small mistakes grow teeth quickly
When you’re trying to stay true

Plans bend out of their own shape
Words land wrong then multiply
Nothing ends nothing settles
We just learn what to deny

I’m tired of fixing the timing
Tired of reading every sign
We keep choosing what sounds easy
Then we pay for it in time

Life feels heavy in small ways
Not enough to make a sound
Love gets stuck in explanations
That keep going in a round
We don’t break we just tangle
Try to pull without a map
Every day asks something different
And never tells us where to stand

Conversations turn to tactics
Every pause becomes a test
Saying less feels safer lately
Even when we mean our best

We trade honesty for balance
Call it calm but feel the cost
Nothing wrong with wanting steady
Just don’t lose what made us talk

We don’t need another answer
We don’t need to win the night
I just want a moment quiet
Where the pressure drops its bite

Life feels heavy in small ways
It adds up before we know
Love gets lost in fine decisions
We were never meant to solve
We don’t fall we just circle
Looking for a cleaner path
Every day asks something different
And leaves the rest to us

Maybe this is how it happens
Not dramatic not fast
Just the weight of daily choosing
Stacked against the past

Life feels heavy in small ways
But it’s still the one we take
Love is work without instructions
That we learn by what we break
We don’t fix it all tonight
We don’t need to understand
We just stay inside the motion
Doing what we can

Tomorrow’s already forming
Before we get some rest
I don’t need it to be simple
I just need it to be honest

I walked too far to start again
But too close to turn away
The sky didn't open —
But I moved anyway

Heartbeat aligned with the sound
Footsteps lost never found

I don’t speak to the wind anymore
It never stayed to listen
But you —
You stayed quiet…
And I heard everything

Time doesn’t fold like a map
We stretch with every turn
The world spins without asking
But we — we learn

And if the tide forgets my name
Let it
I only needed the pull

Tick-tock tick-tock (uh)
Yeah… we don’t stop

Late night I’m still online
clock says no but I cross the line
Lost count drinks laughs replies
I’m just chasing digital highs

Oh seconds fade like smoke in light
but I don’t care if it’s wrong or right

We’re wasting time (yeah-yeah)
but it feels so fine (uh-huh)
No past no sign
just bodies in rhyme
We’re wasting time (oh-oh)
on a borrowed line
if this is crime
then lock me inside

Time time time
can’t rewind rewind rewind
Time time time
we don’t mind mind mind

Golden hour on replay
memories in 4K
You said “forever” cliché
but I still press “stay”

Every beat steals one more minute
don’t stop I’m living in it

We’re wasting time (yeah-yeah)
but it feels so fine (uh-huh)
No past no sign
just bodies in rhyme
We’re wasting time (oh-oh)
on a borrowed line
if this is crime
then lock me inside

Tick-tock tick-tock
can’t stop this clock
Na-na we’re divine
just wasting time

Morning hits the window late
Coffee’s cold but I feel awake
Your name’s still on my playlist
Didn’t mute it didn’t break it

I learned how silence sounds
When you’re not around
But it’s lighter than I thought
Guess I figured something out

I don’t need a sign tonight
No big speech no rewrite
Just walking straight ahead
With the things you never said

I don’t need a brand new heart
Mine still works just different parts
Some are louder some are calm
Still beating still holding on

I don’t need a clean restart
Just a little open space to start
I’m okay where I am
Yeah I’m better than I planned

City moves at normal speed
People laughing next to me
Nothing feels dramatic now
And that’s what I like about it somehow

Your jacket’s gone I kept the time
Not the fights not the lines
I don’t miss the way we broke
Just the jokes we never wrote

No more circling the same streets
No reruns in my head this week
I’m not running I’m not late
Just finally on my way

I don’t need a brand new heart
Mine still works just different parts
Some are louder some are calm
Still beating still holding on

I don’t need a clean restart
Just a little open space to start
I’m okay where I am
Yeah I’m better than I planned

If you ever wonder how I’ve been
I sleep fine I breathe fine
I learned how to let things end
Without losing who’s inside

I don’t need a brand new heart
No repair kit no fresh start
It’s been tested it’s been tried
Still alive on the inside

I don’t need to change the past
Just move forward slow and fast
I’m okay where I stand
Yeah I’m better than I planned

Better than I planned
Still here still me
Yeah I’m better than I planned

You caught my eye
On that ten forty-nine
Right when the train doors
Closed me in

And in my mind
Was "Landslide"
The song my mother made
My dad dance with me to

You're
A song left unwritten
And just in case
I thought I'd say
I hope when the time comes
And that the heartache comes
This brings you back to me
At that moment
When you were caught

Bet you never thought you'd see me here

Ever again
With unbrushed hair and notes of the day
The way you stared
My trench coat brown
My eyes
I hope you remember them
I hope you find me somehow

Because
Darling
You're
A chapter left undone
And just in case
I thought I'd say
I hope when the storm hits
And the weeping winds
Take you back to me
At that moment
When you were nerve-struck
When you were awe-struck

Shadows dance on midnight streets
Footsteps lost in faded beats
Silent stories in our eyes
Holding on like time defies

Hearts collide where the night won’t fade
Falling fast but we’re unafraid

We got nowhere else to be (yeah yeah)
Just you and me in the in-between (oh-oh)
It’s like déjà vu we’re on repeat (woah)
Running wild side by side (side by side)

City hums a quiet tune
Drifting under silver moons
Every second slips away
But we’re here we’re here to stay

Hearts collide where the night won’t fade
Falling fast but we’re unafraid

We got nowhere else to be (yeah yeah)
Just you and me in the in-between (oh-oh)
It’s like déjà vu we’re on repeat (woah)
Running wild side by side (side by side)

No past no future just this moment’s heat
Moving through a dream we don’t repeat

Let the night take what it needs
We got nowhere else to be

Your laugh carves through the haze
Like sunlight in a frozen frame
I walked the road of fire and blades
Traced the letters of your name

Through storms that raged and skies that bled
Every fight every word unsaid

I carry your love like a shield I wear (a fortress unbroken)
Through the fight through despair you're always there (my constant flame)
No chain can bind no storm can tear (unyielding undying)
You're the reason I breathe this air

A fleeting glance the spark remains
In the shadows your light sustains

You held me close when the dark would call
Fingers traced where my fears would crawl
Every stumble was a climb to fall
Every smile was the reason for it all
(the reason for it all)

We bent but never broke in two
Each wound healed stronger thanks to you

I carry your love like a shield I wear (a fortress unbroken)
Through the fight through despair you're always there (my constant flame)
No chain can bind no storm can tear (unyielding undying)
You're the reason I breathe this air

Through the ashes through the fire
You’re the spark my sole desire

The fight may end the road may turn
But for your love my heart will burn
