Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You said “This is where it starts” On a Tuesday In a parking lot Coffee gone cold in your shaking hands My name on your tongue like a promise that forgot Slow walk back to your car Your breath drawing clouds in the dark You stared straight ahead I watched your jaw Trying not to feel the crack The split The mark [Pre-Chorus] Every word we hid between our teeth Still cuts through me now I breathe You turned the key The wipers scratched I knew right then there’s no way back [Chorus] No beginning No end Just this ache that folds and bends Like a circle drawn in sand Washed away by its own hand You were almost Almost mine Till you slipped outside the lines Now I’m stuck inside this bend No beginning No end (ohh) [Verse 2] We moved through the days like ghosts Sharing plates But not our thoughts Your eyes on the flicker of some distant screen My hands on the seams of a world coming apart Friends kept asking how we were I laughed and changed the subject You kissed me quick Like closing a door Already halfway out of the frame you left [Pre-Chorus] All the little lies we let grow roots Bloomed in the cracks between our truths The silence turned from soft to loud Till it drowned us both somehow [Chorus] No beginning No end Just this ache that folds and bends Like a circle drawn in sand Washed away by its own hand You were almost Almost mine Till you slipped outside the lines Now I’m stuck inside this bend No beginning No end [Bridge] [Drop – instruments fall to a low hum Close dry vocal] If I call your name Will you feel it on your skin Like a bruise you can’t remember Where it started sinking in If you dream my face Will it fade before you wake Were we ever really something Or a story we both faked (yeah) [Chorus] [Full band returns Thicker backing vocals] No beginning No end Just your shadow in my chest again Like a ring that never fits But it’s carving in my wrist You were almost Almost mine Echoed on a fraying line I keep tracing where we went No beginning No end [Outro] (Ohh) no beginning (Ohh) no end Just the space where you have been And the shape you left My friend

Verse one in an intimate whisper with distant reverb; chorus blooms with lush pads, stacked background harmonies, and a cinematic string swell. Tension ramps each section with toms, reverse swells, and airy vocal oohs, then everything drops to almost a cappella on the title line before the band surges back for a final, lingering refrain., dream pop, ballad, art pop
