Half-Charged Heart

[Verse 1]
You’re on my couch
Wet hair
Old shirt
Laughing at a movie
We’ve both seen first
Your knee finds mine
Like it got lost
You say
“I’m freezing”
But you never cross your arms
[Chorus]
You plug your phone into my half-charged heart
Leave your toothbrush by the sink like it’s some kind of start
You say it’s casual
But you hold me like an art
Baby
You’re camped out
In my half-charged heart
[Verse 2]
We miss the calls
Let ’em all ring out
You draw stars on my wrist
When you’re thinking too loud
You say
“Don’t overthink”
Then you bite your lip
Like you just read out loud
Every what-if
[Chorus]
You plug your phone into my half-charged heart
Leave your hoodie on my chair like it’s claiming a spot
You call it “hanging out
” but you kiss like you’re not
Baby
You’re moved in
To my half-charged heart
[Bridge]
[Guitars drop back
Vocal up front]
Tell me straight
Are you staying late
’Cause you like my place
Or you like my name
I’m scared to ask
But I want the truth
Did I build these walls
Just to give them to you (oh)
[Chorus]
You plug your phone into my half-charged heart
Turn my empty little room to a thrift-store art
You say it’s temporary
But you talk like a chart
Baby
You’re all in
In my half-charged heart
[Outro]
Leave your light on
In my half-charged heart
Yeah
Your name looks right
On my half-charged heart

rock, Intimate indie-pop / alt-rock blend with male vocals; dry close-mic vocal over crunchy yet soft guitars and warm bass, lightly saturated drums in a lazy half-time groove. Verses stay hushed and confessional with subtle chorusy lead lines; chorus blooms with stacked harmonies, a wider stereo guitar wash, and a lifting synth pad. Brief bridge strips back to vocal and guitar before a final, more urgent chorus and a reverb-kissed outro tag., raw, indie pop, pop, romantic, alternative rock
