Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Room feels crowded But it’s only me Ceiling cracks and coffee stains Old TV glow on my knees I scroll through faces All that smiling shine Can’t find my place in Any of those lives [Chorus] But I’m still here somehow Breathing in Breathing out Heart’s beat counting Every tiny step I’m allowed I don’t feel okay tonight But I’m not turning out the light I’ll stay one more minute That’s my victory for now [Verse 2] Some days I’m sinking Like shoes in the rain Carry quiet questions No one hears me say But there’s this small voice Soft as morning tea Saying “You’re not a burden Just for being you Just being” [Chorus] Yeah I’m still here somehow Breathing in Breathing out Heart’s beat counting Every tiny step I’m allowed Pain sits heavy on my chest But there’s a tremble of a rest I’ll stay one more minute That’s my victory for now [Bridge] One day I’ll laugh And it won’t feel strange I’ll walk through the market Not hiding my face Peace in my pockets Joy in my hands I’ll look back and whisper “I’m glad I stayed” [Chorus] ‘Cause I’m still here somehow Breathing in Breathing out Heart’s beat counting Every tiny step I’m allowed I don’t feel okay tonight But I won’t turn out the light I’ll stay one more minute I’ll stay one more minute Every little minute Leads me closer to the sound Of joy Of quiet peace And I’m still here Still here somehow

First verse stays almost whispered over sparse chords; drums slide in as a brushed kick and subtle shaker in the first chorus. Second chorus lifts with light harmonies and a warm bass undercurrent, ending on a quiet, hopeful guitar figure that lingers in the reverb., acoustic, pop
