Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You laugh I freeze Bite my tongue till it bleeds Every glance Running straight through my veins You talk like We’re only ever friends I nod Pretend But it’s burning again [Pre-Chorus] If I reach for your hand Do we lose what we’ve saved All these almost-words Crowding under my face [Chorus] You’re my forbidden Sweetest ache The line I’m scared I want to break What if we’re right at the wrong time What if you were almost mine In another life We’d share a name Here I just swallow it Call it fate Every beat Every vein Spells your name Your name [Verse 2] You say his name Like it’s part of your own I smile small Stare too long at my phone I drive home With the radio loud Anything To drown you out [Pre-Chorus] If I said what I see Us at thirty and safe Would you laugh in my face Or pull me into your space [Chorus] You’re my forbidden Sweetest ache The line I’m scared I want to break What if we’re right at the wrong time What if you were almost mine In another life We’d share a bed Here I just rerun it in my head Every beat Every vein Spells your name Your name [Bridge] Another life You turn to me first (oh) Another life You’d wear my shirt Another life This wouldn’t hurt Like it does Like it does [Chorus] You’re my forbidden Sweetest ache The vow that I was too late to take What if we’re right at the wrong time What if you were always mine In another life We’d say it plain Here I just hold it inside my chest Every beat Every vein Spells your name (Your name, your name)

Moody alt-pop ballad with intimate male vocals, pulsing synth bass, and sparse keys. Verses stay close and confessional over ticking percussion; pre-chorus adds airy pads and subtle vocal doubles. Chorus blooms with wide harmonies and a lifted chord change, kick drum filling the space. Bridge strips back to almost acapella, then a final, soaring hook with echoing ad-libs.
