Every smile you share every laugh you spare
I wish they were mine alone under my care
In this vast wide world you’re the prize I treasure
Beyond measure my heart’s singular pleasure

It’s not envy it's just wanting you all to myself
A secret too sweet to keep on the shelf

I don’t want to share no not even a glance
With me take a chance in this exclusive romance
Yours and mine let’s define our boundary line
In your eyes I find a sign endlessly entwine

Others may long for a moment of your time
But I yearn for an eternity is it such a crime?
Each moment you're away feels like a small eternity
Come closer stay be my heart’s sole journey

It’s not envy it's just wanting you all to myself
A secret too sweet to keep on the shelf

I don’t want to share no not even a glance
With me take a chance in this exclusive romance
Yours and mine let’s define our boundary line
In your eyes I find a sign endlessly entwine

Let them call me possessive I won’t mind
As long as in my arms it’s me you always find
With every heartbeat confirm you’re just mine
In this love let’s entangle intertwine

Only us in a world where love’s confined
Forever bound our hearts aligned

Streetlights flicker they know your face
Dancin’ alone in this crowded place
You slipped away where the silence grows
In this empty cage where the cold wind blows

(Oh-oh-oh yeah!)

Heart’s still yearnin’ can’t let it go
In this empty space I’m losin’ control
(Whoa-oh!)

You walked away left me in the fire
Burnin’ through the nights chasin’ desire
Dreams like ashes scatter in the air
But I’m still here caught in your snare
(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh!)

(Whoa-oh whoa-oh whoa-oh!)

Flickerin’ visions of what we had
Now it’s all gone just a touch so sad
I hear your voice but it’s far away
In this twisted game I’m forced to play

(Oh-oh-oh yeah!)

Heart’s still yearnin’ can’t let it go
In this empty space I’m losin’ control
(Whoa-oh!)

You walked away left me in the fire
Burnin’ through the nights chasin’ desire
Dreams like ashes scatter in the air
But I’m still here caught in your snare
(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh!)

(Whoa-oh!)
Every step you take I’m fallin’ behind
In this shattered world no peace to find
(Whoa-oh!)

You walked away left me in the fire
Burnin’ through the nights chasin’ desire
Dreams like ashes scatter in the air
But I’m still here caught in your snare
(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh!)

(Whoa-oh whoa-oh whoa-oh!)
In the silence I hear your name
But it’s just an echo a ghostly flame
(Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh!)

Alright
You don’t have to listen
But maybe —
maybe you should

Start with water
Not some fake fitness elixir
Just water
Sip it before your coffee
then sip it again after your regrets

Sleep is not weakness
Neither is asking for help
Just don’t ask the internet
It thinks garlic cures everything

Call your dad
Even if the call is quiet
Especially then

When in doubt clean something
Start small
Your desk
Your browser history
Your heart

Buy plants
Name them after people who once hurt you
Then watch them die peacefully in a well-lit corner

Don’t trust anyone who brags about how little they sleep
They’re not deep — they’re tired
Same thing with people who always "grind"
They’re not hungry — they’re running from something

Eat the fruit before it wrinkles
Like your plans
Don’t let them rot in the bowl

Stretch your knees
Take care of them like they’re the last pair you’ll get
Because they are

Your hair?
Stop pulling at it
It’s not a problem to solve
It’s a crown
Messy is still royalty

Read the damn book
Even if it’s slow
Even if you forget what you just read
You’ll remember the part that matters
That’s how memory works —
selectively like a moody DJ

Take your time
Don’t forget to breathe
Hold what’s light
And let go what grieves

Unfollow people who make you feel small
You’re not rude — you’re pruning

Call your old friends
Not because they need you
But because you still remember
how they laughed in eighth grade

Skip one party
Leave one message on read
Stay in on a Friday
and let your spine remember what pillows feel like

Stop saying sorry when you mean thank you
And stop apologizing for taking up space
You do
You’re allowed to

Take the photo
You look better than you think
Years from now
that version of you will say “Hey thanks for not deleting me”

And hey
walk more
Even if it's just to the fridge and back
Even if it's aimless
Especially if it's aimless

Take your time
Don’t forget to breathe
Hold what’s light
And let go what grieves

You’re still here
That means something
Now go
Just don’t run

It's rainy outside snowing outside
And pour me in ice cold water swell my chest
To make me hard to weep to lie to lie
But I will find another route
Yeah

'Cause
Baby
It's easy for me now
And if I have another chance
I will never ask a second chance

For now you recognize the sound
The sound is good
For now you recognize the light
The source of the light
(Uh) (ah)
(Ah)

Saw me very low
And use to call me mad as bad as you could
But hush
My baby
I don't mind
It's what sublime
Sublime

But make after now it's easy for me finally
Seems that I never felt you love me truly anyway

For now you recognize the sound
The sound is good
For now you recognize the light
The source of the light
(Uh) (uh)
(Ah)
(Ah)

“Can you hear me?
I’m here… but not”

“I see you
I always do
But I can’t reach
Can’t touch”

“I’m behind the wall you don’t see
Not glass
Not space
Just time
…folded wrong”

"You're breathing
I can feel the rhythm
But it’s not mine anymore”

“They said time was a line
But this feels like a trap
Looped
Between almost
And never”

“I wish we were in the same dimension
Just once
That would’ve been enough”

Told me I’d regret it — guess I forgot
Living like a risk you never got
I’ve been spinning hours into peace
While you watch from your retreat

You sip on rules I drink the rain
You dress your truth in borrowed shame

I’m not the one who’s stuck in place
You paint your fear across my face
But I don’t flinch I don’t explain
I dance through thunder sing through pain
You call it chaos — I call it mine

You hold your breath and wait for grace
I jump first I don't brace
Maps never knew my way
Still I find more than you say

You sip on rules I drink the rain
You dress your truth in borrowed shame

I’m not the one who’s stuck in place
You paint your fear across my face
But I don’t flinch I don’t explain
I dance through thunder sing through pain
You call it chaos — I call it mine

Maybe I’m too much for your quiet
But I’m a riot you won’t forget

Keep your calm and curated days
I’ll be gone in brighter ways

Slow down…
Don’t wake the fire
It already knows
Who I am

Dust hangs low where the old road bends
Every scar still remembers friends
I don’t ask if tomorrow stays
I just count the smoke instead of days

One cold wind
One tired hand
Trying to build
What never stands

Every prayer arrives
Wearing different clothes
Maybe heaven answers
Maybe nobody knows

Hold your flame
Don’t hide your face
Even broken walls
Can become a place

If the night
Calls out my name
I’ll answer slow
Just the same

Hold your flame…
Don’t let it fade

My father’s coat still smells like rain
Every pocket keeps a different pain
Coins grow heavy
Truth grows light
Some men disappear
Before the fight

I don’t need another miracle
Only one more mile to walk
The silence speaks
Louder than angels
When nobody talks

Hold your flame
Across the storm
Nothing living
Stays untouched or warm

If I fall
Don’t call my name
Just leave the fire…
Exactly where it came

The ashes know my name…
The ashes know…
My name…

You said I make it hard to help me
And you weren't wrong you weren't wrong
I said you disappear inside a job
And you knew that too

I heard it and I wanted to fight it
Every word of it was true
That's the worst kind of argument
The one you lose to somebody you love

Nobody won the kitchen tonight
And nobody's leaving

Turns out both of us were right
Turns out that's the hardest part
You can't beat a person
When you're on the same side of the wall
Both of us were right
So both of us have work to do
And I'd rather do the work in here
Than be right without you

(both of us both of us)

I'll say the thing before it gets heavy

I'll leave the phone in the other room

Small repairs not grand gestures
That's how a house stays up

Turns out both of us were right
Turns out that's the hardest part
You can't beat a person
When you're on the same side of the wall
Both of us were right
So both of us have work to do
And I'd rather do the work in here
Than be right without you

We're not the couple in the film
Who scream and then it's fine
We're the ones who write it down
And actually do it this time

Turns out both of us were right
Turns out that's the hardest part
You can't beat a person
When you're on the same side of the wall
Both of us were right
So both of us have work to do
And I'd rather do the work in here
Than be right without you

Both of us were right
(both of us both of us)

You left your scarf on my chair
Cheap red thread and summer air
I still fold it by the door
Like you might come back for more

And I know I know
It was never clean
But your name
Still shakes the seams

Paper cup summer
You still taste like that
Paper cup summer
Gone fast came back
I keep one small match
For the dark you made
Paper cup summer
Won't fade won't fade

Bus stop rain on your shoes
You laughed like you had bad news
In the park under the trees
You said "Don't make a promise to me"

And I know I know
We were shaking hard
Two wild hearts
In a borrowed car

Paper cup summer
You still taste like that
Paper cup summer
Gone fast came back
I keep one small match
For the dark you made
Paper cup summer
Won't fade won't fade

Now the corner store's closed early
The peach gum on your sleeve still hurts me
If I call would you hear my voice?
Or just the noise just the noise

Paper cup summer
You still taste like that
Paper cup summer
Gone fast came back
I keep one small match
For the dark you made
Paper cup summer
Won't fade won't fade
