8 hours

[Verse 1]
8 hours away from the static and the noise,
Commas break the silence, commas choke my voice.
Want a house with you, walls we can claim,
Want forever inked beside your name.

[Pre-Chorus]
The ring, the vows, the fire we’ll ignite—
But commas keep us waiting through the night.

[Chorus] 
8 hours from the house where love takes root,
8 hours from forever, where the pain turns mute.
8 hours from the ring I’ll slip onto your hand,
8 hours from the life we’ll finally understand.
But today, 8 hours from your touch, your love,
It’s for now, more than enough—
For now, more than enough.

[Verse 2]
Want the “I do,” want our families whole,
Want the kind of peace that saves a soul.
Commas in the waiting, commas in my chest,
Every pause reminds me I won’t settle for less.

[Pre-Chorus]
The dream, the vow, the fire we’ll ignite—
But commas keep us waiting through the night.

[Chorus] (screamed/sung)
8 hours from the home that we’ll call ours,
8 hours from forever written in the stars.
8 hours from the ring I’ll slip onto your hand,
8 hours from the moment we finally understand.
But today, 8 hours from your touch, your love,
It’s for now, more than enough—
For now, more than enough.

[Bridge] 
Commas in the silence, commas cut me deep,
Wants for the future, promises I’ll keep.
But 8 hours from today, I don’t just want—
I need. I need. I need.

[Final Chorus] 
8 hours from the house where love takes root,
8 hours from forever, where the pain turns mute.
8 hours from the ring I’ll slip onto your hand,
8 hours from the day we finally understand.
But today, 8 hours from your touch, your love,
It’s for now, more than enough—
For now, more than enough.

[Outro]
Commas fade,
Forever stays,
8 hours from you—
I’ll make it through.
