歌詞

I stack the chairs you count the glasses

Paper cups crumple like cooled embers

Neon flickers the floor holds footprints

My breath makes fog at the doorway

Tape peels slow from a handmade banner

We laugh not loud but true this time

You say no rush we can speak plainly

No script now just names without glitter

If there’s a cut we will clean it gently

Lights come up we start again

Lights come up we start again

Not an ending just the paint removed

Hands still moving hearts uncostumed

Lights come up we start again

Keys in your palm coat on your shoulder

Cracked ice ticking inside the sink

Alley steam warms the cold threshold

A small moth circles the porch light

We trade the truth like folded napkins

No performance only the real weight

If we missed notes let them be lessons

If we were loud let echoes fade

Say my name plain I will say yours

Choose the map after the street is clear

Lights come up we start again

Lights come up we start again

Endings teach us how to enter

Quiet doors make better centers

Lights come up we start again

I’ll walk with you to the corner

Lights come up we start again
