[Verse 1] (Husband) Boots by the door but I’m oceans away Your voice in my headset at the end of the day Kids on the screen, froze in a pixelated frame I tap the glass like I can touch your face [Pre-Chorus] (Husband) I read your name on the glow of my phone Thin little line to a house, to a home I count the days like cuts on my arm Praying this armor still lets me hold your heart [Chorus] (Both) I’m still yours in the warzone, babe You’re still mine in the hallway haze Same old love in a brand new pain Till I’m back home in my hoodie, in the pouring rain Hold that side of the bed for me Leave my mug by the kitchen sink Every small thing says your name to me I’m a world away, but you’re still where I breathe [Verse 2] (Wife) Your coat hangs limp on the backroom chair Your son wears your cap, says you’re everywhere I burn your toast just to smell those days Then laugh-cry alone while the cartoon plays [Pre-Chorus] (Wife) I talk to your picture like you talk to the stars “Did you eat? Did you sleep? How’s your heart holding scars?” I fold your shirts like I’m folding up time Waiting for keys in the door and your voice in my mind [Chorus] (Both) You’re still mine in the warzone, babe I’m still yours in this hallway haze Same old love in a brand new pain Till you’re back home in your hoodie, in the pouring rain I’ll keep your side of the bed in place Same chipped cup, same parking space Every small thing says you’re close to me You’re a world away, but you’re still where I breathe [Bridge] (Both, trading lines) (Husband) I write you letters I never can send (Wife) I set two plates, then put one back again (Husband) I hear our girl say my name in her sleep (Wife) I play your laugh on a loop till I weep (Both) If fear comes knocking, I’ll answer with faith If the night runs long, we’ll outrun the fray Same moon hanging over you and me Different sky, same gravity [Chorus] (Both) We’re still us in the warzone, babe Holding on through the hallway haze Same old love in a brand new pain Till we tangle up our mornings like we used to again Keep my side of your heart in place I’ll keep your name in every grace Every breath I take, you’re home to me I’m a world away, but you’re still where I breathe (yeah)

rap, Alt-rock guitars over trap hats and 808s, dark but anthemic. Verses trade between male and female vocals; pre-chorus pulls back to reverb-heavy guitars, then chorus slams in with layered duet hook. Bridge strips to filtered drums and distant vocal chops before final full-band lift., hip hop, rock
