Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Airport coffee
Shaking in my hand
Gate change
Late again
Watching my plans on the screen flicker
Same hoodie
Three days in a row
Phone full of drafts
That I’m scared to show
To anyone
[Chorus]
Late-night layover
Talking to my reflection
Motel TV glow
Fights with my own questions
Heartbreak in a carry-on
Hunger in my chest
I’m lost
But I move on
’cause lonely feels like rest
Late-night layover
I’m delayed
But I’m not done yet
[Verse 2]
Key card
Fights with the rusted door
One towel
And somebody else’s cologne
In the drawer
Half-price wings
Cold in a paper box
Her name pops up
Then it disappears
Like it got lost
[Chorus]
Late-night layover
Talking to my reflection
Motel TV glow
Fights with my own questions
Heartbreak in a carry-on
Hunger in my chest
I’m lost
But I move on
’cause lonely feels like rest
Late-night layover
I’m delayed
But I’m not done yet
[Bridge]
I ain’t where I was
I ain’t where I’m going
Just this hallway hum
And the ice machine moaning (yeah)
If this is all I get
Between leaving and arrival
I’ll bleed into the notepad
Make the waiting feel like survival
[Chorus]
Late-night layover
Talking to my reflection
Motel TV glow
Fights with my own questions
Heartbreak in a carry-on
Hunger in my chest
I’m lost
But I move on
’cause lonely feels like rest
Late-night layover
I’m delayed
But I’m not done yet (not yet)

muted boom-bap drums and distant vinyl crackle under moody rhodes; male vocals drifting between half-sung hooks and confessional rap. verses stay intimate and close-mic’dlike a voice memo at 3 a.m.; choruses widen with soft harmonies and a warm bass bed. subtle guitar swells and reversed textures bloom in transitionsenergy rising from murmured reflection to a tiredhungry resolve by the outro.beatsraw
