Lyrics
Before it arrives
The room gets quieter
Than it has any right to be
I used to call it absence
Like it didn’t have a shape
But it leans against my breathing
And it knows the way I break
Every hour tastes familiar
Every shadow feels rehearsed
I don’t flinch when it gets closer
I just open up the hurt
I tell myself I’m careful
Like that’s ever been enough
I don’t ask it to be gentle
I just let it touch
Lonely wraps around my throat
Like it’s trying to be kind
I don’t sleep, I let it take me
One more time
I light the room with half a breath
Just to watch it pull away
There’s a comfort in the waiting
When I know it’s going to stay
Every night I draw the curtains
Like I’m setting up a stage
I don’t call it self-destruction
I just call it what I crave
I say I’m in control now
Like I haven’t learned the cost
But I keep my body open
For whatever wants me lost
Lonely wraps around my throat
Like it’s trying to be kind
I don’t sleep, I let it take me
One more time
If I wanted something better
I would’ve left this place
But the dark feels so familiar
Like a hand against my face
I don’t need it to be honest
I don’t need it to be true
I just need it when I’m quiet
Like it always knew to do
Lonely wraps around my throat
Like it’s trying to be kind
I don’t sleep, I let it take me
One more time
It never says it loves me
It never has to try
It only comes when I’m empty
And I never ask it why
