Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Found a door in a hallway crack Painted words I could never understand You took my hand Said “don’t look back” Into that sad Sad magic land Sky bent down in a violet curve Clocks ran slow Then they turned to sand Every step pulled against my nerves Like the ground didn’t want me to stand [Pre-Chorus] You said “Time is a river We’re crossing it late” I said “If this is forever I’m begging you Wait” [Chorus] Porter of the sad magic land Don’t leave me here Don’t let go of my hand (don’t let go) I’m sorry for the words I never planned Didn’t mean to break the spell we had If this is just a dream Then shake me awake Or stay till the morning For both our sakes Porter of the sad magic land Don’t leave me alone with the ache [Verse 2] Lamp posts leaning like tired friends Mouths half-open But nothing said You drew maps in the air with your breath Promised exits I forgot in my head Every color was almost right Like the world had been painted twice You looked back with that shadowed light Said “Choose me or the sacrifice” [Pre-Chorus] You said “Dreams are a mirror They crack when you speak” I said “If I wake up Will I still feel this weak?” [Chorus] Porter of the sad magic land Don’t leave me here Don’t let go of my hand (stay close) I’m sorry All the damage that I am Didn’t mean to turn the gold to glass If this is just a dream Then pull me back through Or lie to me softly and say it’s all true Porter of the sad magic land I’ll follow you Follow you [Bridge] If I open my eyes Do you fall out of time? If I beg you to stay Do you fade anyway? [Chorus] Porter of the sad magic land Don’t leave me here Don’t let go of my hand (oh, don’t go) I’m sorry Every promise that I scrapped Every “forever” I let collapse If it’s just a dream I don’t want to wake up Let the morning come and find us stuck Porter of the sad magic land Please don’t let the daylight win us back

Moody electro-pop ballad with male vocals; soft detuned keys and airy pads over a slow pulsing beat. Verse starts intimate and narrow, then pre-chorus brings rising arps and subtle vocal doubles. Chorus hits wider with side-chained synth beds, distorted sub bass swells, and echoing chopped ad-libs. Final hook strips back to keys and voice, lingering in bittersweet reverb., world, sad
