Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I still keep the key where you left it, like I don’t know how to throw it away. Thought I knew what forever meant, but now forever’s just something people say. You held me like I was your always, but your always came with an ending. You said love, but love shouldn’t feel this much like pretending. [Pre-Chorus] And I replay every moment like it could change if I just tried— but the truth won’t rewrite itself, no matter how many times. [Chorus] We were almost something holy, almost something true, almost found a forever in the shadow of you. But almost doesn’t save me when I’m lying here alone. We were almost everything, but almost can’t be home. [Verse 2] I still dream about the moments that made your world feel like mine. Even the quiet stuck to me, like echoes I can’t leave behind. But loving you was borrowed time, a house I could never keep. You built me walls of maybe, then buried me underneath. [Pre-Chorus] I still search for reasons that could make it make some sense, but almost isn’t comfort— it just cuts like consequence. [Chorus] We were almost something holy, almost something true, almost found a forever in the shadow of you. But almost doesn’t save me when I’m lying here alone. We were almost everything, but almost can’t be home. [Bridge] Maybe in another lifetime we don’t break like this. Maybe in another lifetime forever actually fits. [Chorus] We were almost something holy, almost something true, almost found a forever— but forever wasn’t you. Now I’m piecing back my pieces, learning how to stand alone. We were almost everything, but almost can’t be home. [Outro] Almost… Almost can’t be home.
