Halfway To Heaven
intimate fingerpicked and close-mic felt piano in the verses, barely-there sidechain pulse, Pre-chorus adds plucky loops and rising synth swells, Choruses burst into adjacent deep-house grooves, layered harmonies, airy pads, and rock-tinted with crunchy parallel tucked under the sides, Energy arcs from hushed confessional to dancefloor catharsis, then drops to a hanging, unresolved final chord between minor and major on a single sustained trumpet dyad, reverb tail lingering.

Lyrics
Verse 1
Your coat on my chair
Your glass by the sink
Every little echo
Makes me stop
Makes me think
You laugh in the hallway
I save it in my mind
Like a loop that keeps on skipping
Every time you hit rewind
Pre-Chorus
You spin in my kitchen
Sock feet sliding
Say my name like a secret
Like you’re deciding (oh)
Are we just tonight
Or something frightening
’Cause it’s starting to feel like lightning
Chorus
We’re halfway to heaven on a living room floor
Dancing on the edge
But we’re asking for more
You pull me in closer
Then you’re out of reach
Every step together’s like a missing beat
Halfway to heaven
Halfway to gone
I don’t know the ending
So I sing along
If this is a question we can’t afford
Hold me on the line of an unfinished chord
Verse 2
Your phone face-down
My heart face-up
You tell me all your almosts
While I pour another cup
You trace constellations
On my shoulder with your hand
Say you’re scared of definitions
But you hate to leave things planned
Pre-Chorus
You talk about futures like they’re foreign films
Subtitles fading right when it gets real (hey)
We’re laughing too loud
But the room knows why
Every joke’s just covering the quiet inside
Chorus
We’re halfway to heaven on a living room floor
Dancing on the edge
But we’re asking for more
You pull me in closer
Then you’re out of reach
Every step together’s like a missing beat
Halfway to heaven
Halfway to gone
I don’t know the ending
So I sing along
If this is a question we can’t afford
Hold me on the line of an unfinished chord
Bridge
Maybe love is
Almost
Almost
Meeting in the middle
Of “stay” and “go”
If you say “forever”
I might run
If you say “never”
I’ll come undone (oh)
Chorus
We’re halfway to heaven on a living room floor
Spinning like a record that can’t find the door
You pull me in closer
Then you’re out of reach
Every step together’s like a missing beat
Halfway to heaven
Halfway to gone
I don’t know the ending
So I sing along
If this is a question we can’t ignore
Hold me on the line of an unfinished chord
Outro
Breathe in my ear
Don’t choose a side
Leave it right here
Let it collide
One note trembling
Caught in between
Major
Minor
You and me
