Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You pull that blanket Tuck it tight to your chest Leave the bedroom light off Like that room never exists TV glow on your face Half a laugh Then you stop Every cushion a body Every silence a shock [Chorus] [Female hook] Couch for two But it’s only you Lying to your pulse ’Til the lie feels true You keep that space Pressed into your side Couch for two In a house that you outran inside [Verse 2] You leave one slipper Kicked off under the chair Mismatched mug in the sink Like someone left it there Phone on the table Face-down Heavy as stone You hit play on some rerun So it’s not just your bones [Chorus] [Female hook + male under] Couch for two But it’s only you Lying to your pulse ’Til the lie feels true You keep that space Pressed into your side Couch for two In a house that you outran inside [Bridge] [Male lead Female echoes] You say “I’m fine” (say “I’m fine”) To the ceiling fan That never blinks Never asks You close your eyes (close your eyes) And shift your weight Make room for a past you can’t have back [Chorus] [Female hook Male answers] Couch for two But it’s only you (I know it’s only me) Lying to your pulse ’Til the lie feels true (’til it starts to feel true) You keep that space Like a phantom limb (I still reach out at night) Couch for two ’Cause the bed’s too wide to swim [Outro] [Soft Almost whispered] So you sleep on the couch Like an arm ’round your waist Every spring in the frame Learning how to take her place

rock, Moody indie rock ballad with dark, close-mic’d piano and low, roomy drums; male vocals intimate and slightly raspy in the verses, female hook floating in the choruses with subtle harmonies. Guitars stay clean and reverb-soaked, blooming more in the second chorus and bridge. Slow build from fragile to cathartic, then pull back to near-silence on the final line., indie rock, sleep, male vocals
