Not Just The Drinks

Verse 1

Ten people in the room, but it felt like two
You moved seats like you always knew
Hands brushed once, then you let it stay
Like we both had something not to say

You said “accident,” but you didn’t move
Stayed right there like you wanted to
Every glance was a loaded line
Like we crossed it but we’re still in between

⸻

Pre-Chorus

Was it just the lights?
Or the way you leaned in slow
Was it just that night?
Or something we don’t wanna show

⸻

Drop

If it was nothing
Why’d it feel like something?
Why’d you sit that close
Like you weren’t bluffing?
If it was just one night
Why’s it still running?
Silence this loud
Ain’t “just the drinks,” it’s something

⸻

Verse 2

Three of us left when the night went thin
Door shut quiet, you pulled me in
No one said it, we didn’t have to
Room got smaller when I sat with you

Your laugh was low, like you knew the line
Like we both were killing time
Like we’re walking edges we don’t name
But we both keep playing the game

⸻

Pre-Chorus 2

Say it was the alcohol
Say it’s nothing at all
But you don’t sit that close
If you don’t feel it pull

⸻

Drop (Bigger, layered vocals)

If it was nothing
Why’d it feel like something?
Why’d you hold that look
Like you were trusting?
If it was just one night
Why’s it still humming?
Silence this loud
Ain’t “just the drinks,” it’s something

(Vocal chop under: “Not just the drinks… not just the drinks…”)

⸻

Bridge (Half-time, stripped back)

If I don’t call
Will you think I didn’t care?
If you don’t speak
Are we both just scared?

Tell me was it reckless
Or was it real?
’Cause you don’t sit that close
If you don’t feel

⸻

Final Drop

If it was nothing
Why’s it still burning?
Two weeks out
And I’m still learning
Silence this loud
Don’t feel accidental
If it was “just the drinks”
Why’s it this essential?

(Final echo: “Not just the drinks…”)
