Leave Me Be, Bro

[Verse 1]
You keep asking if I'm lonely
Like you’re sure I must be bored
Got a whole damn universe
Behind my bedroom door
I chase arguments with angels
Then I fix what I destroy
Fold my fears into paper planes
Launch ‘em
Watch ‘em turn to joy
[Chorus]
Leave me be
Bro
I’m busy in my brain
Building little empires
Out of tarot cards and pain
Leave me be
Bro
I’m somewhere you can’t go
I could be here for days and days
And never feel alone
(leave me be, bro)
[Verse 2]
You say “Touch some grass
You need to”
I already grew a forest in my head
Every branch a different story
Every path a different dread
I’ve been fighting wars with windows
Till the mirror calls a truce
Then I solve my own confession
Like a crossword made of truth
[Chorus]
Leave me be
Bro
I’m busy in my brain
Turning panic into puzzles
Running circles ‘round the shame
Leave me be
Bro
I’m somewhere you won’t know
I can watch my thoughts like movies
Never need a show
(leave me be, bro)
[Bridge]
I don’t need your pity questions
“Are you okay?” on repeat
I’ve got company in silence
Whole crowds in the backseat
You call it being distant
I call it being free
If I disappear for a weekend
That’s me hanging out with me
(yeah, that’s me)
[Chorus]
Leave me be
Bro
I’m busy in my brain
Writing happy little endings
For the parts of me that ache
Leave me be
Bro
I’m good here on my own
I can be inside my head for days
And never feel alone
(leave me be, bro)

Chorus blooms with bright arps, crunchy sidechained bass, and gang-style backing vocals on the title hook. Subtle vocoder doubles in the bridge, then a final stripped-down chorus with one soaring harmony stack to close., electro, emo
