Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Haven’t called my friends in weeks Let the messages decay Let the dishes in the sink Match the chaos in my brain Staring at the ceiling fan Waiting for the dark to talk Every plan I ever had Feels like chalk on broken rock [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been making distance feel Like it’s all I know Burning every bridge I build Just to watch it glow [Chorus] But your little hands Pull me back from the edge Tiny voice saying “Daddy” Keeps rewinding my regret Every time my fear Tries to drag me away I look in your eyes and I remember You’re the reason I stay You’re the reason I stay (yeah) [Verse 2] I get sharp when I’m afraid Turn the kindness into steel Say I’m tired Close the door Hide the parts I cannot heal People try to pull me out But I’d rather disappear Then I hear you down the hall Laughing loud Cutting through the fear [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been treating love like fire Pushing it aside But you run into my arms Like the flames feel right [Chorus] ‘Cause your little hands Pull me back from the edge Tiny voice saying “Daddy” Keeps rewinding my regret Every time my fear Tries to drag me away I look in your eyes and I remember You’re the reason I stay You’re the reason I stay (oh) [Bridge] Maybe one day I’ll explain Why the nights felt like a war How a four-year-old’s “I love you” Built a lock on every door I’m still battling the shadows But they don’t get the final say ‘Cause I promised you forever And I wake up for that promise every day [Chorus] Yeah Your little hands Pull me back from the edge Tiny voice saying “Daddy” Keeps rewinding my regret Every time my fear Tries to drag me away I look in your eyes and I remember You’re the reason I stay You’re the reason I stay (hey) You’re the reason I stay

pop, Moody modern pop with sparse piano and warm pads under intimate male vocals. First verse almost whispered, kick entering gently in the pre-chorus, then a wide, soaring hook with stacked harmonies and subtle vocal chops. Second pass of the chorus adds brighter synths and a lifted drum groove for emotional release, then everything drops back to piano and voice on the last line.
