[Intro – Vinyl crackle, distant pad swell]
Yeah…
(…still here.)
[Verse 1]
Streetlight hum through the blinds,
Same room, different time.
Your shadow’s gone from the wall,
But I still talk like you’re home.
Phone face down, nothing new,
Every silence sounds like you.
I keep the lights on low,
Like that’ll stop you from going.
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought quiet meant peace,
But it just sounds like me.
[Chorus]
I’m still playing the songs we knew,
Still waiting on something true.
If you hear this, I hope you’re fine,
I just miss what was mine.
Every night feels too long,
Every memory plays on.
I let you go, but honestly—
You never really left me.
[Verse 2]
Coffee cold, sun too bright,
Another wasted good-bye.
I walk past places we were,
Pretend they don’t hurt.
Friends say time heals slow,
But it only learns the road.
I smile like I moved on,
Then the night proves me wrong.
[Pre-Chorus]
I tell myself I’m okay,
But it echoes when I say it.
[Chorus]
I’m still playing the songs we knew,
Still waiting on something true.
If you hear this, I hope you’re fine,
I just miss what was mine.
Every night feels too long,
Every memory plays on.
I let you go, but honestly—
You never really left me.
[Bridge – Stripped, echo vox]
If missing you had a sound,
It’d be this room right now.
If loving you was a phase,
Why does it still feel the same?
I don’t need you to return,
I just need the ache to learn.
[Final Chorus – Softer, fading]
I’m still playing the songs we knew,
Lower now, like I should too.
If you’re happy, let it be,
That’s enough to quiet me.
Every night still feels wrong,
But I’m learning to move on.
I let you go, eventually—
But tonight you’re still with me.
[Outro – Tape hiss, pad dissolves]
Yeah…
(…still playing.)
