Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – distant pad, vinyl hiss] Mm… Yeah… [Verse 1 – soft, intimate] I’ve been waking up in pieces, Counting hours I don’t need. Every thought feels unfinished, Like a sentence missing me. Your name sits on my tongue still, But I don’t say it out loud. I learned silence talks louder When there’s nobody around. [Pre-Chorus – airy lift] I don’t know what I’m holding onto, But I know I’m not letting go. Every night feels like a rerun Of a life I almost know. [Chorus – fragile, floating] I’m half awake, half gone, Drifting where I don’t belong. If I stay right here too long, I might fade into the song. I don’t need you to stay, I just need you to know— I’m still learning how to feel Without breaking too slow. [Post-Chorus – echo ad-libs] Mm… Half awake… Yeah… [Verse 2 – restrained, reflective] I keep my heart in low power, Save the rest for another day. I don’t cry like I used to, I just let it ache. Every smile feels borrowed, Every laugh feels thin. I’m not broken, just tired Of pretending I’m in. [Pre-Chorus – subtle build] I don’t ask for explanations, I don’t need a sign. I just sit with the feeling And let it pass my mind. [Chorus – fuller, still soft] I’m half awake, half gone, Floating through the dark till dawn. Every memory feels wrong When it plays back in my bones. I don’t need you to stay, I don’t need control— I just wish this quiet ache Didn’t feel like home. [Bridge – stripped, emotional] Maybe I’m scared of the quiet, Maybe I’m scared to heal. Maybe I miss who I was Before I learned how to feel. I talk to the ceiling at night, Like it knows me the best. I don’t ask it for answers, Just somewhere to rest. [Final Chorus – fragile resolve] I’m half awake, still here, Still breathing through the fear. If I disappear a bit, Know I’m trying to be real. I don’t need saving now, I just need to grow— Even sadness has a way Of teaching me to go slow. [Outro – pads dissolve, echo tail] Mm… Half awake… Still here.
