Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Everyone says “time moves on” They pack up your shirts Give away your old songs They laugh at the table Like nothing is wrong But your coffee cup’s Still where it belongs [Pre-Chorus] They talk like you’re a story Told once Then put aside I still leave you a space On my left On my right [Chorus] When they’re gone They aren’t really gone Are they Or are they Living in my head on replay They forget But I’m still holding my breath I remember everything Why can’t I forget [Verse 2] I know all your numbers Though they never ring I scroll through our messages Don’t delete a thing They’ve turned the last page Closed the book It seems I’m stuck between sentences Lost in the in-between [Pre-Chorus] How do they turn the volume down On every little sign I still hear you in the quiet Answering my mind [Chorus] When they’re gone They aren’t really gone Are they Or are they Living in my head on replay They forget But I’m still holding my breath I remember everything Why can’t I forget [Bridge] If letting go means losing you I don’t know if I want to If moving on means fading out Then I’ll stay here I’ll stay loud (yeah) [Chorus] When they’re gone They aren’t really gone Are they Or are they The shadow in my doorway They forget I’m still tracing every step I remember everything I remember everything I remember everything Why can’t I forget

Intimate indie ballad with fragile male vocals over soft piano and brushed drums. Verses stay hushed and close-mic’d; chorus blooms with warm pads and a subtle bass swell. Sparse guitar harmonics add sparkle in the bridge, then everything drops to almost acapella for the final hook.
