Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You’re on your side of the couch Scrolling past what we should say Every little thing feels louder Than the reasons we both stayed Mugs in the sink Weeks of silence We treat the truth like it’s a game I see the hurt behind your eyelids You see my pride and my shame [Chorus] ’Cause it’s easier to walk away Than stand here in the fire with you Easier to pack a bag Than unpack what we’ve been through But I still feel your hand in mine Under all the ash and blame We could use the love we’ve got Or just throw it all away [Verse 2] We keep the lights on in the hallway Sleep on edges of the bed Talking circles in our own heads Fighting ghosts of things we said You say you’re tired of the damage I say I’m scared of what we’d lose Both of us holding the door half open Terrified of having to choose [Chorus] ’Cause it’s easier to walk away Than stand here in the fire with you Easier to change the locks Than change what we both still do But I still feel your hand in mine Under all the ash and blame We could use the love we’ve got Or just throw it all away [Bridge] What if this ache is a warning Not a sign that we are through What if the hardest part this morning Is choosing to stay Choosing you (oh) If every crack is a place Where the light could break in Are we strong enough Worn enough To let healing begin [Chorus] ’Cause it’s easier to walk away Than stand here in the fire with you Easier to close the book Than read the hurting truth But I still feel your hand in mine Under all the ash and blame We could use the love we’ve got Or just throw it all away We could use the love we’ve got Or just throw it all away

pop, Melancholic pop ballad with intimate piano and warm pads; verses fragile and close-mic, then drums and bass bloom in the chorus. Subtle guitar swells and distant vocal chops add depth. Build from soft confession to a cathartic final hook, leaving space for emotional male or female vocals and stacked harmonies on the title line., sad, deep
