Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Met her at your birthday
Paper hats
Cheap wine
You were in the kitchen
She was in my eyes
Stayed too long on goodbye
Felt that line slip tight
Told myself it’s nothing
Then I called her late that night
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve been holding my breath
Every time I see you smile
You pull her to your chest
And I’m dying the whole while
[Chorus]
What if I were honest?
What if I said her name
Like a prayer that I keep breaking
Every night we fan this flame
I was only meant to guard you
But I crossed that crooked line
How do I tell you
Your girl is in my arms tonight
And I’m in love
I’m in love this time
[Verse 2]
Coffee on a Tuesday
Said she needed air
Laughing in the back booth
Like we’d always been a pair
She cried about the distance
You were buried in your phone
I wiped away her tears and
I forgot she’s not my own
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m checking my phone
Every time she leaves your side
You keep asking what’s wrong
I just say I’m tired
[Chorus]
What if I were honest?
What if I said her name
Like a promise that I shattered
Every time she whispers
“Stay”
You trusted me to guard you
But we crossed that crooked line
How do I tell you
Your girl is in my arms tonight
And I’m in love
I’m in love this time
[Bridge]
If I break your heart to save mine
Is that love or just a lie with better lighting
If I disappear and cut the ties
Could I carry this and still sleep at night
You call me brother
Say you’ll never doubt
I taste the word and it fills my mouth
I start to speak
But the truth
Just won’t come out
[Chorus]
What if I were honest?
What if I said her name
Would you ever even look at me
The same way again
You asked me to protect you
But I crossed that crooked line
How do I tell you
Your girl is in my arms tonight
And I’m in love
Yeah I’m lost in her eyes
I’m in love
And it’s killing your life and mine
[Outro]
Met her at your birthday
Now every candle burns
You’re making wishes in the dark
You don’t know mine’s to unlearn her
If I were honest
Would anything survive?

Style
pop, Intimate pop ballad with male vocals; soft piano and warm pads in the verses, subtle rimshot groove that blooms into deep toms and wide reverb in the chorus. Vocal stays close-mic and confessional first, then lifts into a soaring hook with stacked harmonies and a distant guitar shimmer. Final chorus strips to piano and voice for a raw, vulnerable close., ballad
