Midnight in E Minor

Yeah

Eyes open

Middle of the night again

Ash on the desk

Phone face-down, still buzzing in the dark

Skeletons lined up

Like trophies on the wall of my heart

I’ve been dodging every mirror

‘Cause I’m scared I’ll see my father in my face

Cold coffee, warm rage

Every little thing out of place

I keep running from the shadows that I built

Every promise that I broke feels realer than the ones I kept

If I vanish in the silence that I tilt

Tell me, would you even notice that I left

Midnight in E minor

Heart like a closed-down diner

Seats all ripped and the lights turned low

But the pain still works, and the memories glow

Midnight in E minor

Can’t get much darker, can’t get much higher

I’m drowning slow on this empty floor

Say you want the truth, I’ve got nothing more

Ink on my hands

From a list of all the names that I owe

Every bridge that I burned

Still flickers in the rearview glow

I’ve been talking to the ceiling

Like it’s got some kind of answer I missed

If the devil’s in the detail

He’s carved into every scar on my wrist

I keep blaming all the nights I can’t feel

For the days I never learned to let you in, I hold my breath

If I spiral every time that it gets real

Tell me, would you still be waiting at the end

If I crash out now

Would you carry what I couldn’t ever handle

Or leave my ghost

Humming in the hallway like a candle

All this hurt in a half-step key

If I fall too deep, will you fall with me
