Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] The sink is full of cold black water My hands keep shaking over one last glass Your coat is hanging on the chair like a witness And the room keeps turning, slow and fast I bite my tongue till I taste the metal I pace the floor till the boards all crack Every breath feels like I borrowed it Every step feels like a slam in the back [Pre-Chorus] Left behind: your key on the hook Left behind: a cracked picture frame Left behind: the matchbook, the ring box Left behind: the note with no name [Chorus] Give me a reason, a reason to breathe Give me a reason, a reason to stay I’m a cup full of thunder, a fistful of rain A broken hinge on a rusted-out gate Give me a reason, a reason to breathe Give me a reason before I slip away I’m holding on by a wire and a prayer Say my name, say my name, say it like you care [Verse 2] The hallway smells like burnt-up paper The mirror shows me somebody mean I pick at the scab on the knuckle of memory Till it opens up and bleeds unseen Your voicemail loops in the black of the monitor Then the silence lands like a brick on my chest I know I’m a mess with my teeth in the dark But I still reach out for the best [Pre-Chorus] Left behind: the porch light dying Left behind: two shoes by the door Left behind: the plant you forgot to water Left behind: my heart on the floor [Chorus] Give me a reason, a reason to breathe Give me a reason, a reason to stay I’m a cup full of thunder, a fistful of rain A broken hinge on a rusted-out gate Give me a reason, a reason to breathe Give me a reason before I slip away I’m holding on by a wire and a prayer Say my name, say my name, say it like you care [Bridge] If I hit the bottom, pull me up by the bones If I lose my grip, don’t let me go I don’t need forever, I just need tonight A spark in the ash, a thread of light [Breakdown] Left behind: the spoon in the drain Left behind: the dent in the wall Left behind: the unpaid cold morning Left behind: me if I fall [Final Chorus] Give me a reason, a reason to breathe Give me a reason, a reason to stay I’m a cup full of thunder, a fistful of rain A broken hinge on a rusted-out gate Give me a reason, a reason to breathe Give me a reason before I slip away I’m holding on by a wire and a prayer Say my name, say my name, say it like you care Give me a reason, a reason to breathe Give me a reason, a reason to stay I’m not asking for easy, I’m asking for dawn One more hour, one more chance, one more song

Heavy modern rock-metal with female vocals, downtuned chugging guitars, punchy double-kick drive, and a huge melodic chorus that crashes open after tense, halting pre-choruses; gritty low-register verses, stacked gang shouts on the hook, and a last-chorus lift with ringing toms and a sharpened lead guitar line cutting through the wall of sound., rock, metal
