Lyrik
[INTRO]
[INSTRUMENTAL: dark synth pad, soft filtered beat]
[FEMALE VOCAL / high-pitched soft soprano, Dido style, intimate]
Too soon
too loud
too bright
A room
that knows me
but won't hold
[VERSE 1 / LEAD VOCAL: low-pitched male spoken word, Maxi Jazz style]
I leave the house while it still thinks it sleeps
Carry this weight like a second skin
A skin you can never take off
Streets full of people with reasons to be
I fall in line and keep moving on
I call it duty so I don't ask why
[CHORUS A / FEMALE VOCAL: soft soprano, single voice]
Heavy air
cold hands
Time that will not move
I stand and stand
And something is missing
[VERSE 2 / LEAD VOCAL: male spoken word]
You do not speak, you only breathe
I listen between the spaces of your breath
Trying to find one honest thing
I explain silence away with work
And I explain work away with love
But both ring hollow once it gets loud
[CHORUS B / FEMALE VOCAL]
Tired eyes
no edge
Closeness without warmth
I hold on without strength
I am here and gone
[VERSE 3 / LEAD VOCAL: male spoken word]
They say a family is a place you can stay
So I built us walls out of hours and pay
Out of pay slips and small promises
But places shift when no one lives there
When we just use them and don't arrive
Maybe we're not lost –
We just stand too still
[BRIDGE / LAYERED] [FEMALE]: Tight chest, short breath [LEAD]:
I hear alarms but
I can't see fire
[FEMALE]:
Night without sleep
[LEAD]:
We live on backup and call it everyday life
[BREAKDOWN / INSTRUMENTAL]
(too much... too close... too empty)
[FINAL VERSE / LEAD VOCAL: tired, closer]
I wanted to be enough for everything, for everyone
Now I know "enough" is not a finish line
It is a state you have to share
And we, these days, only share the weight
[FINAL CHORUS / FEMALE VOCAL: almost physical]
Heavy legs, no aim
Silent inside
I hold and hold
And slowly I sink
[OUTRO / LEAD VOCAL: low and open]
Maybe nothing holds it all together
Maybe leaving is not enough
