[Intro (whisper, layered voices)]
Mama… mama…
Hello… goodbye…
Can you hear me…?
[Verse 1]
Up in the ceiling where the shadows play
Something’s moving but it lost its face
Paper secrets stuffed inside its mind
Names written down that it can’t unwind
They were laughing when they threw it high
Didn’t think it would remember why
Now the halls go quiet late at night
Soft little steps just out of sight
[Pre-Chorus]
Tap… tap… drifting slow
Little hands with nowhere to go
Calling out but it can’t see
Who it was… or used to be
[Chorus (catchy, eerie contrast)]
Mama, mama… where’d you go?
Hello, hello… I don’t know
Goodbye, goodbye… don’t leave me
I can’t find what I can’t see
Mama, mama… say my name
Hello, hello… who’s to blame?
Goodbye, goodbye… hear me call
I’m still crawling through it all
[Verse 2]
Ceiling cracks and a quiet sound
Something lost is walking ‘round
Bumping walls in the dark above
Looking for the thing it lost
Names it whispers in the night
Calling softly, never right
Every echo feels the same
Every voice repeats those names
[Pre-Chorus]
Tap… tap… closer now
Little steps but it don’t know how
Every laugh it heard before
Turns to something wanting more
[Chorus]
Mama, mama… where’d you go?
Hello, hello… I don’t know
Goodbye, goodbye… don’t leave me
I can’t find what I can’t see
Mama, mama… say my name
Hello, hello… who’s to blame?
Goodbye, goodbye… hear me call
I’m still crawling through it all
[Bridge (dark turn, layered voices + glitch effect)]
You wrote your names… I hear them still
Echoed soft against my will
I can’t see… but I can call
One by one… I’ll find you all
(whispered, overlapping)
Mama… hello… goodbye…
Say my name… say my name…
[Final Chorus (bigger, haunting)]
Mama, mama… where’d you go?
Hello, hello… I don’t know
Goodbye, goodbye… don’t leave me
I remember everything
Mama, mama… say my name
Hello, hello… feel the same
Goodbye, goodbye… hear me call
I’m still crawling through it all
[Outro (fading, unsettling but soft)]
Mama…
Hello…
Goodbye…
…(whispered names fading out)
