God Left the Porch Light On

[Verse 1]
I hear the clock tick louder than breath,  
Shadows stretch like they’ve made peace with death.  
Floorboards whisper, soft and cruel,  
Empty chair rocks like a fool.

[Pre-Chorus]
I ask the ceiling—  
You got answers or just peeling?

[Chorus]
God left the porch light on.  
Maybe I’ll walk, maybe I’ll crawl.  
God left the porch light on,  
But it’s dimming, barely there at all.

[Verse 2]
Rain taps the glass like it wants in,  
My reflection’s cracked, worn thin.  
The walls hold stories tight in fists—  
I’m not sure I made their list.

[Pre-Chorus]
I ask the silence—  
You got mercy or just violence?

[Chorus]
God left the porch light on.  
Maybe I’ll walk, maybe I’ll crawl.  
God left the porch light on,  
But it’s dimming, barely there at all.

[Bridge]
Tell me why it all feels so loud
Even the silence is screaming now
Stars falling out the blackened shroud
Is this the end or just the sound

[Guitar aolo]

[Chorus]
God left the porch light on.  
Maybe I’ll run, maybe I’ll stall.  
God left the porch light on,  
But it’s dimming, barely there at all.
