Lyric

I left the light on

I don’t know why

Maybe the room looked worse

When it was honest

There’s a cup by the bed

Still half full

Or half something

I keep looking at it

Phone face down

Like that makes me calm

Like the whole world stops

When I stop checking

I said one thing

Not to anyone

Just into the room

It sounded smaller

Than I thought

It did not fix me

But it stayed

I’m not saved

Okay

That’s fine

I’m still here

Same clothes

Same window

The words did not fall

Straight through the floor

Something held them

A second more

Gentle guitar comes in

Like someone entering quietly

Not enough to scare me

Just enough to notice

I make tea

Then forget it

I do that a lot

I guess that’s normal

The notes app is open

One sentence, no title

I type I am fine

Then delete the line

Morning gets on the wall

Not beautiful

Just there

Still, it felt different

Hearing my own voice

Like the room had edges

Like I did not spill out

I’m not saved

Okay

That’s fine

I’m still here

Same clothes

Same window

The words did not fall

Straight through the floor

Something held them

A second more

Maybe nobody heard

Maybe that’s not the point

Maybe I make sound

To know where I am

The quiet sits here

Not kind

Not cruel

Just staying

And I keep saying little things

Like okay

Like breathe

Like don’t leave yet

Not to you

Not exactly

Just out loud

Just barely

I’m not saved

Okay

That’s fine

I’m still here

Same clothes

Same window

The words did not fall

Straight through the floor

Something held them

A second more

I’m still here

Not bright

Not new

But less gone than before
