[Verse 1 — quiet confession]
Your breath is hanging in the dark
A trembling ghost against my skin
I shouldn’t let you pull me close
But here I am, letting you in
Your fingers trace along my pulse
Like you’re reading what I never say
And every secret slips out slow
When you touch me that way
⸻
[Pre-Chorus — the choice]
I know what loving you can do
How it carves the truth in two
But silence feels like safety here
And danger sounds like you
⸻
[Chorus — whisper-level surrender]
So whisper
Say the things you never say out loud
Let your voice drown out the doubt
Only we can hear it now
Just whisper
Tell me I’m the one you couldn’t lose
Even if it’s never true
I’ll believe it in this room
Whisper…
⸻
[Verse 2 — soft, dangerous longing]
Your shadow settles over mine
Like something holy turned to sin
I shouldn’t reach for what you are
But pull me under once again
Your eyes are quiet hurricanes
They pull the truth right out of me
If I’m a moth drawn to the flame
Then burn me carefully
⸻
[Pre-Chorus 2 — fragile honesty]
I know the darkness in your hands
I feel it every time we dance
But I keep leaning into you
Like I never had a chance
⸻
[Chorus 2 — deeper, more intimate]
So whisper
Say the things you never say in light
Let them break me soft tonight
Hold my heart between your lies
Just whisper
Tell me I’m the fire in your chest
Even if I’m just a breath
I’ll take whatever’s left
Whisper…
⸻
[Bridge — closest moment of the whole album]
[soft breaths, almost spoken]
Come closer…
I won’t pull away this time
Hold me where the shadows hide
Tell me truths you never write
If your darkness has a place for me
I’ll stay quiet…
I’ll stay willingly
Say my name like it’s a sin
Say you want me — even then
Let me drown inside your voice
Whisper me into your choice…
⸻
[Final Chorus — soft acceptance]
So whisper
Let the shadows wrap around our heat
Keep your promises discreet
Say the words you never speak
Just whisper
I don’t need forever clear
Just the way you pull me near
Only we can hear
Whisper…
[soft inhale, fade]
