歌詞

You learned the hours of my room

Before you learned my name out loud

Your jacket on the kitchen chair

Made my small place feel allowed

I moved my books to make you space

I changed the song before you asked

I laughed when you corrected me

Then wondered why my throat went flat

It did not feel like losing

It felt like letting in

Until my mornings started

Waiting on your mood again

Too Close to Stay Myself

I bent around your weather

Called it love because it held me

Called it safe because it stayed

You never had to force it

You only had to lean

And I became the quiet version

You preferred to keep near me

I stopped choosing window seats

Because you liked the darker side

I saved my anger for later

Then later never had a time

You said I took things heavy

With that careful little smile

So I made my feelings smaller

Just to keep you for a while

You did not call it taking

You called it being close

But every time I answered

I sounded less like me than most

I wore your calm like clothing

It fit until it burned

Every need I tried to mention

Came back as something I should learn

You never raised your voice up

You only moved the floor

And I kept saying sorry

For wanting something more

I miss the girl who left her phone

Face down without checking twice

The one who could decide a day

Without reading both your eyes

I know now it was not softness

When I disappeared with grace

It was practice being smaller

In a room that had your shape

I bent around your weather

Until my edges blurred

You liked me best when I was easy

When I swallowed every word

Now the distance feels like oxygen

Even when it hurts to breathe

I am finding all the pieces

You mistook for yours to keep
