I left my coat on
Like I might need to go
Shoes by the doorway
Pointed at the road
Phone face down
But never out of reach
A half-lit room
Still making room for need
I told myself
It was just a quiet night
No plans fell through
Nothing to decline
But I kept the hour open
Like a door I would not name
And every little silence
Started sounding like your claim
Kept available
For a call you never made
I left the night unlocked
And called it being brave
I did not say I waited
I just never turned away
Kept available
For a maybe with your name
I let my friends go
With an easy little lie
Said I was tired
Said I might stay inside
I did not eat yet
I did not pour the wine
I kept the evening
In a shape you might like
It was not a promise
It was not a plan
Just the kind of nothing
I could still misunderstand
And I hated how I listened
For a sound that was not there
Like wanting you in private
Made the wanting disappear
Kept available
For a call you never made
I left the night unlocked
And called it being brave
I did not say I waited
I just never turned away
Kept available
For a maybe with your name
Maybe I made it easy
To leave me in between
Easy to remember
Only when you need
Maybe I stayed ready
So you would not have to choose
Made a smaller version
Of a man for you to use
Still kept available
For a call you never made
I left my whole life open
In a quiet little way
I did not ask for more
So you gave me less each day
Still kept available
For a maybe with your name
I put my coat down
When the morning came
The room looked different
But it felt the same
Phone face up
No light on the screen
Just one more night
I kept away from me

I Take My Name Back
Ostel Dain
『Within Your Maybe』は、誰かの曖昧さの中に収まるために、自分の望みを少しずつ小さくしていく男を描いた、冷たく乾いた大人のR&Bアルバム。
約束されたものは何もないのに、離れることもできない、名前のない関係を描いている。
Ostel Dainは、平気なふりをすること、少ない愛を受け入れること、いつでも呼ばれたら行ける状態でいること、そして気づいた時には、自分を「そばに置きやすいけれど、選ぶほどではない存在」にしてしまっていたことの静かな痛みを歌う。
