Intro] (soft hums / harmony)
Mmm…
Yeah…
Some nights don’t let go…
[Verse 1]
I’ve been carrying weight I can’t put down,
Smiling outside while my head spins round.
My heart keeps speaking when the room goes quiet,
And every memory starts another riot.
Too many pictures I didn’t ask to see,
Too many thoughts coming back to me.
I close my eyes but they don’t fade away,
And somehow night turns into day.
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me when the silence comes,
Tell me when my chest lets go—
I keep dancing with the shadows,
But I don’t wanna move this slow.
[Chorus] (melodic / harmony stacked)
I don’t wanna lose myself tonight,
I just want the hurting lighter.
Mind running fast, heart feeling tired,
Trying to find a little fire.
The guilt keeps calling my name,
But I don’t wanna stay the same.
No, I won’t carry this forever—
No, I won’t break under the weather.
(Ooh…) let the feeling pass through me
(Ooh…) don’t let it bury me
[Verse 2]
And maybe I can’t undo what’s done,
But maybe I don’t gotta run.
Maybe regret ain’t made to stay,
Maybe it teaches then fades away.
I keep reaching for a different view,
Trying to remember what is still true.
One mistake feels louder at night,
But morning doesn’t ask me to fight.
[Bridge] (drop instruments back)
My mind says stay in the moment forever,
But my soul says storms don’t stay together.
So I breathe…
And I wait…
And I let the night escape…
[Final Chorus] (full dancehall energy + harmonies)
I don’t wanna lose myself tonight,
I just want the hurting lighter.
Mind running fast, heart feeling tired,
Still holding onto something brighter.
The guilt keeps calling my name,
But I don’t wanna stay the same.
No, I won’t carry this forever—
I’ll feel it now and leave it weathered.
[Outro] (soft layered harmonies)
Some nights stay longer…
But they still pass…
And I’m still here…
Yeah… I’m still here…
