Prompt / Lyrics
(Overall mood and feeling: Despair like choking on breath, almost crying, slow but powerful start but a crashing deep chorus, a twisting bridge and a longing cinematic strong outro) Verse 1 There’s a thought I’ve been holding Like water in my hands Every time I try to name it It runs where it can I practice in the quiet What I never say out loud By the time I’m ready The moment’s not around Chorus There’s a space where my words fall down Between my mind and my mouth I feel everything too deep to sound So it stays where it’s found There’s a truth I keep reaching for But it turns when I turn around I lose myself a little more Between my mind and my mouth Verse 2 I’m not hiding, I’m just late To my own reply Every feeling moves so slowly By the time it arrives I watch people pass me With their sentences whole While mine come apart Before they’re told Chorus There’s a space where my words fall down Between my mind and my mouth I feel everything too deep to sound So it stays where it’s found There’s a truth I keep reaching for But it won’t come out right It lives just behind the door I close every night Bridge If silence is a language Then I’m fluent in the ache I don’t mean to be distant I just hesitate I love you in unfinished lines In pauses, in doubt In all the things I never get Past my mouth Final Chorus There’s a space where my words fall down Between my mind and my mouth I carry whole worlds I can’t pronounce And I don’t know how If you’re listening, stay close somehow Don’t ask me to explain Just hold what I can’t get out And call it my name Outro I’m not empty I’m just quiet Where the feelings go to lie I’m not gone I’m just trying To make the long way outside
