Gave My All

[Verse 1]
Cold room
Blue light on my skin
Name on my phone
I don’t let it ring
Heart rate
Pounding in my throat
Tried to talk soft
Every word came out choked
[Chorus]
I gave my all
Till I was gone
Scraped myself empty
Just to keep you warm
You say it’s love
Then watch me crawl
You took your piece
I gave my all
[Verse 2]
Short breath
Tremor in my hands
Pulled every string
Just to watch them snap again
You slept
Fine through every storm
I stayed awake
Trying to hold your world in form
[Chorus]
I gave my all
Till I was gone
Scraped myself empty
Just to keep you warm
You say it’s love
Then watch me crawl
You took your piece
I gave my all
[Bridge]
Say my name like it’s nothing (nothing)
Laugh it off like I’m strong (so strong)
But my chest feels like it’s splitting
From carrying us this long
[Chorus]
I gave my all
Till I was gone
Scraped myself empty
Just to keep you warm
You say it’s love
Then watch me fall
You kept your heart
I gave my all

pop, Alt R&B / alt pop with male vocals, swollen sub-bass and saturated low-end hugging the kick; airy pads and distant vocal chops swirling like fog. Verses are intimate and whispered right in the ear, with tight, clipped drums and filtered keys. Chorus widens into reverb-drenched harmonies and a soaring top-line, bass hitting in waves. Subtle distortion on the lead in the hook to channel rage through velvet. Bridge strips to almost nothing, then final chorus crashes back in, even thicker and more ethereal., r&b
