[Intro]
I wake to a room that remembers my name
But nothing inside it answers back
[Verse 1]
The chair across the table stays empty
Dust gathers where a hand should be
I scroll past faces I used to know
No one turns around for me
The afternoon dies in the curtains
The clock keeps cutting through the wall
I make a list of reasons to get up
Then lose the list before I call
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep my pulse beneath the floor
So no one asks what it is for
[Chorus]
I can't see a future past this room
Every door becomes another wound
If I disappear, would anything bend?
Would the silence notice where I end?
I am still here, though I don't know why
Holding one more breath against the night
[Verse 2]
My phone is cold beside the mattress
Three weeks of words I never send
I rehearse a joke for an audience
That never makes it to the end
The mirror gives me back a stranger
With tired eyes and borrowed skin
I built a life from locked-up pieces
Now I don't know where to begin
[Pre-Chorus]
I count the cracks across the ceiling
Like proof that something else is healing
[Chorus]
I can't see a future past this room
Every door becomes another wound
If I disappear, would anything bend?
Would the silence notice where I end?
I am still here, though I don't know why
Holding one more breath against the night
[Bridge]
No promise
No rescue
No hand reaching through
Just this floor
Just this heartbeat
Just one thing I can choose
I won't call it hope
Not yet, not tonight
But I can leave the curtain open
I can let in a little light
[Breakdown]
I am not the emptiness
I am not the empty chair
I am not the voice that tells me
No one would know I'm there
[Final Chorus]
I can't see a future past this room
But the walls have started losing shape
If I disappear, the dark won't win
I will drag my ruined name back in
I am still here, and that has to count
One more breath, then one more out
[Outro]
Tomorrow doesn't have to shine
It only has to let me cross the line
One small step beyond this room
One small step beneath the moon
