Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Tiny room Paint peeled corners You worked late I heard the door Early hurt On a school day morning You said "stand up" Then you said "more" [Chorus] I feel stronger in the breaking All those nights you held your ground Father in the rearview Still riding through this town Time flies by so quick So brutal I still reach like you are near Every scar you gave me courage I keep your shadow here [Verse 2] Old blue coat That you left hanging Still smells faint Like winter rain I replay Every hard-edged lesson Now they sound Like softer waves [Chorus] I feel stronger in the breaking All those nights you held your ground Father in the rearview Still riding through this town Time flies by so quick So brutal I still reach like you are near Every scar you gave me courage I keep your shadow here [Bridge] Did you know I’d make it? Would you even recognize This tired face in the mirror Or the fire in my eyes? (yeah) I carry your silence Like a song I never learned But the ache keeps turning Turning [Chorus] I feel stronger in the breaking All those nights you held your ground Father in the rearview Still riding through this town Time flies by so quick So tender I still wish that you were here Every scar you gave me courage I keep your shadow here (here) I keep your shadow here

rock, Indie rock meets hazy ambient; male vocals, close and intimate at first over soft tremolo guitar and warm pads. Drums enter with a dusty, mid-tempo groove in the first chorus, bass staying melodic but restrained. Guitars swell and shimmer in the bridge, reverb tails stretching the space as vocals grow rougher and more emotional. Final chorus strips back to voice, pads, and a single guitar line, ending on a lingering chord., ambient, indie rock
