Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You left your keys by the bowl
Still half of your notes on my phone
I keep your name in my mouth
Like a stone I can't throw
Same mug in the sink
Same shirt on the chair
I act like I'm fine
But you still live here
Your hoodie on the hook
Your side of the bed
I fold up the hurt
Then it falls out again
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to be cool
I tried to be grown
But every little room
Feels too much like home
[Chorus]
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
I need air in this place
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
Take your name out my face
I loved you hard
Now it hurts that way
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
Let me break this day
[Verse 2]
You said "it's not you"
Then you said it was me
Then the blame got dressed up
And sat between us to eat
I stayed up too long
You stayed out too far
We were two bad maps
In the same old car
Now the screen stays dark
When I reach for you
Funny how silence
Can sound so cruel
I don't want revenge
I just want my peace
I want my chest unclenched
When I hear your keys
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to be cool
I tried to be grown
But every little room
Feels too much like home
[Chorus]
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
I need air in this place
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
Take your name out my face
I loved you hard
Now it hurts that way
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
Let me break this day
[Bridge]
I won't beg for a door
That stays half-open
I won't wear your maybe
Like it's holy
If you come around
Keep it brief, keep it clean
I'm learning how to live
Where you used to be
[Final Chorus]
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
I need air in this place
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
Take your name out my face
I loved you hard
Now it hurts that way
Cut the tapes
Cut the tapes
Let me break this day

Rap with a moody mid-tempo boom-bap swing, hard kick-snare pocket, and dusty chopped-soul loop; verse rides tight drum-only pockets with sharp internal rhymes, pre-chorus opens with filtered bass and snapped claps, chorus hits with stacked doubles and a chantable hook. Add tape-stop transitions, vocal ad-libs panned wide on key lines, and a sub drop into the final hook. Bright top end, gritty low end, intimate close-mic lead., rap
