Verse 1
3 AM, city breathing slow
Streetlights flicker like they know
Every scar I try to hide
Sings my name when I’m alone tonight
Phone lights up, but I don’t reply
Some hearts knock, but I’m terrified
I’ve been running from my shadow
Chasing highs that fade by tomorrow
Pre-Chorus
I’m tired of the noise in my head
Tired of the things I never said
If I fall, will you let me fall
Or will you catch me through it all?
Chorus
I’m almost home, don’t let me go
I’ve been lost in the afterglow
If I break, don’t turn away
Stay with me, don’t fade to gray
I’m almost home, I can feel it now
Just need you to show me how
Through the dark, through the unknown
Hold me close—I’m almost home
Verse 2
Mirror talks, but I look away
Says, “You’re stronger than yesterday”
I wear my fear like fashion week
Smile loud, but I’m still weak
Every love left a little bruise
Every win came with something to lose
But I’m done pretending I don’t care
I want real, I want you there
Pre-Chorus
I’m tired of dancing on the edge
Making promises I can’t hedge
If I jump, will you jump too
Or am I falling solo through?
Chorus
I’m almost home, don’t let me go
I’ve been lost in the afterglow
If I break, don’t turn away
Stay with me, don’t fade to gray
I’m almost home, I can feel it now
Just need you to show me how
Through the dark, through the unknown
Hold me close—I’m almost home
Bridge
If my heart gets heavy, will you stay?
If I’m not okay, still love me anyway
I don’t need perfect, I just need true
I don’t need saving—just you
Lights come on, I’m not afraid
For the first time, I wanna stay
I’m done running from my own name
I’m done losing just to play it safe
Final Chorus (Big & Emotional)
I’m almost home, hear my heartbeat
Every broken part feels complete
If I fall, we’ll hit the ground
But at least I won’t be alone now
I’m almost home, say you’re here
Say the future’s not my fear
Through the fire, through it all
I found myself—I found it all
Outro
3 AM, sky turning gold
I’m not lost anymore
I’m home.
