Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You trace my name In the dust on the window glass Say you’re not leaving Just “taking it day by day” But your eyes Already halfway past the door You kiss my shoulder Like you’re saying sorry in advance [Pre-Chorus] Is this love or a slow surrender You’re here but you’re far away Every “it’s fine” getting sharp Getting thinner I can taste all the words you never say (never say) [Chorus] Pain You dress it up and call it something else Say it’s “just a phase” While you’re killing me in stealth I feel you pulling back Thread by thread Stitch by stitch Pain You’re the one I want And the wound I can’t fix (oh) Pain You’re the one I want And the wound I can’t fix [Verse 2] You laugh too loud At a joke you barely hear Stare at the ceiling Like there’s something written there Your touch goes missing In the middle of your hands You hold me closer But you’re holding back again [Pre-Chorus] Every promise hangs like a chandelier Beautiful Ready to fall You turn your face and the silence gets nearer I keep waiting for impact against the wall (against the wall) [Chorus] Pain You dress it up and call it something else Say it’s “just a phase” While you’re killing me in stealth I feel you pulling back Thread by thread Stitch by stitch Pain You’re the one I want And the wound I can’t fix (yeah) Pain You’re the one I want And the wound I can’t fix [Bridge] [Drop – drums and bass hit Vocals low and intimate] Tell me Is there someone in the mirror That you’re trying to escape Am I the habit That you’re breaking in your sleep You breathe my name Like a secret you regret But you won’t let go You won’t let go of it (oh) [Chorus] Pain You dress it up and call it something else Say it’s “just a phase” While you’re killing me in stealth I feel you pulling back Thread by thread Stitch by stitch Pain You’re the one I want And the wound I can’t fix Pain Write it on my skin In a language of your leaving Pain I still let you in Even when I feel you leaving

folk, Slow-burning art-pop ballad with male vocals; intimate folk-tinged verses over soft fingerpicked guitar and warm bass, distant pads building cinematic tension. Pre-chorus adds ghostly background vocals and rising strings; chorus drops into a darker, heavier low-end with hypnotic drums and reverb-soaked harmonies, seductive but aching. Final section strips back to near-acapella with sparse piano, ending on a lingering, unresolved chord., ballad, dream pop, art pop
