Lyric

"See ya later," you said with a smile at the gate

I’m repeating your voice, it’s a habit of late

Just a few simple words, but they’re all that I need

To feel a soft warmth where my heart starts to bleed

I know we’re just friends, yeah, I’ve drawn out the line

Told myself a thousand times that I’m doing fine

But the vow that I made in the heat of the day

In the silence of night, simply withers away

That tiny one percent, that flicker of a chance

You shake it all up with a casual glance

The more I tell my heart "don't you dare expect a thing"

The more I feel the hope that your simple whispers bring

My hope is only one percent

In a monochrome world, I was drifting alone

But you brought the colors that I’ve never known

Just being beside you, the grey turns to gold

I can’t go back to the stories of old

My hope is only one percent

Scrolling through my phone, searching for your name

Reading old chat logs, it’s a bittersweet game

Mundane little texts, I hold them so tight

Like a lucky charm keeping me safe through the night

A "maybe" or "what if" starts to grow in my mind

Then vanishes like snow, leaving nothing behind

But the frozen parts of me, hidden and deep

Are melting in the smile that you want me to keep

That tiny one percent, that flicker of a light

Your casual gestures are shining so bright

The more I try to look away, the more I start to see

That you’re the only world that is living inside me

My hope is only one percent

My ordinary days started burning so bright

Just thinking of you in the middle of night

I know I can’t go back to who I was before

But I’m reaching my hand for just one second more

My hope is only one percent

The odds of this love... they’re just one percent

Like my phone battery, almost empty and spent

I know it, I know it, I’ve seen the red sign

But I’m scared of the moment that light leaves the line

I'm terrified of the dark

That tiny one percent, you shake my very soul

Every little thing you do, I’m losing all control

I won’t tell myself "don't expect" anymore

Because you’re the one that I’ve been waiting for

My hope is only one percent

My monochrome world was forever changed

By the light in your eyes, everything’s rearranged

I can’t go back to a place without you

My hope is only one hundred

(Music slows down, intimate piano)

One hundred percent

...I just want to see you
