Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Jack and Sally climbed the hill With paper hearts and shaky will A cracked-up grin, a jacket sleeve Two little lies they both believed [Pre-Chorus] If I slip, will you stay near? If I fall, will you still hear? Hold my hand through the black ground Don’t let go when the world won’t sound [Chorus] Jack and Sally, stay with me Jack and Sally, let me breathe One more step, one more line Don’t let the dark take both this time Jack and Sally, stay with me Jack and Sally, let me breathe [Verse 2] Jack broke down by the iron gate Counted all the ways to wait Sally sang with a trembling tongue A nursery tune for the nearly undone [Pre-Chorus] If I shake, will you still know? If I fade, will you tell me no? Pull me back from the ledge of sleep Keep my name where the shadows seep [Chorus] Jack and Sally, stay with me Jack and Sally, let me breathe One more step, one more line Don’t let the dark take both this time Jack and Sally, stay with me Jack and Sally, let me breathe [Bridge] And if the moon looks cold tonight We’ll stitch the seams and board up tight Not to vanish, not to break Just to see another day wake [Final Chorus] Jack and Sally, stay with me Jack and Sally, let me breathe One more step, one more line Don’t let the dark take both this time Jack and Sally, stay with me Jack and Sally, let me breathe

Emo nursery-rhyme ballad with male vocals, slow swung 6/8 pulse and fingerpicked guitar under soft tom hits; verse stays sparse and close-mic, pre-chorus adds aching harmony pads, chorus lifts with stacked doubles and a singable childlike chant. Tiny music-box plinks, reversed swells, and a final hush to intimate, dark, polished mix., emo, nursery
