[Instrumental Intro – distant piano, ambient pad, low sub bass]
...
[Verse 1 – soft piano, light snap percussion]
I don’t talk much these days
Got too good at walking away
Silence filling up the room
Like it’s something I should say
Your name still on my phone
But I leave it alone
If I text you first again
I might lose control
[Pre-Chorus – clean guitar, falsetto layer]
If you wanna stay
You don’t have to explain
I won’t ask you to promise
I won’t beg you to change
[Chorus – soft drums, layered harmonies]
Stay if you want
I won’t hold you down
Love’s just a ghost
When it makes no sound
Stay if you want
Or just walk away
I’ll still feel you here
Even if you don’t stay
[Instrumental Break – piano riff, sub bass pulse]
...
[Rap Verse 1 – 808 bass, trap hi hats, dry vocal]
Yeah
I built my pride like a fortress wall
Say I don’t care but I feel it all
Every time you leave, I play it cool
But I check that door like a fool
I don’t chase, I don’t plead
I just bury what I need
Act detached, move discreet
But your shadow follows me
[Melodic Rap Verse – 808, soft pad]
I been tryna numb the pain
Different city, same rain
Every time I say your name
It don’t hit the same
I say I’m fine but I’m lying
Every goodbye’s bad timing
If you asked me not to leave
I’d probably stay fighting
[Pre-Chorus – drums drop, vocal stack]
If you wanna stay
Don’t say it too late
We’re both scared of the truth
That we might break
[Build – rising synth, soft snare roll]
Hold on
Don’t run
Not yet
[Minimal Drop – sub bass, vocal chop, sparse drums]
...
[Bridge – piano only, falsetto lead]
Maybe love is just timing
Maybe we’re bad at trying
If you’re scared, so am I
We don’t have to decide
[Final Chorus – full harmonies, stronger drums]
Stay if you want
I won’t hold you down
Love’s just a ghost
When it makes no sound
Stay if you want
Or just walk away
If you turn around
I’ll still be the same
[Outro – ambient pad, piano fade]
Stay…
If you want…
