Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Empty mug on the windowsill
Lip print
Little half-life of you
Dust floating in a lazy spin
Whole day holding its breath in this room
Clock ticks like it’s scared to be heard
My phone facedown
Scared of the words
I sit and listen to the air between
What I thought I was and who I’ve been
[Chorus]
Room tone
I can hear my heart in the quiet
Soft drone
Of the traffic humming outside it
In the still
I finally know
What I should’ve said years ago
In the hush
Everything shows
Room tone
Telling me it’s time to let go
[Verse 2]
Folded note in a jacket sleeve
Four lines
All the bravest of me
I read them like a stranger would
Guess I was always close to good
Light buzz
Then the fridge kicks in
Little jump
Then I laugh again
It’s wild how loud the truth can ring
When I stop trying to make it sing (hey)
[Chorus]
Room tone
I can hear my heart in the quiet
Soft drone
Of the traffic humming outside it
In the still
I finally know
What I should’ve said years ago
In the hush
Everything shows
Room tone
Telling me it’s time to let go
[Bridge]
I used to fill every gap with a joke
Every pause with another word spoke
Now I let the silence talk me down
From the edge I never named out loud
[Chorus]
Room tone
I can hear my heart in the quiet
Soft drone
Of the traffic humming outside it
In the still
I finally know
I don’t need your echo to grow
In the hush
Everything shows
Room tone
Saying it’s okay to let go
