Description
[Verse 1]
The landlord knocked at three, you left the light on in my head,
You blamed the grades on my nights, said I ruined what you said.
There was a heating bill and a silence thicker than a door,
You counted every debt and missed the nights I couldn’t stand the floor.
You said "be better" from the doorway, then closed it like a book,
I learned to hide the shaking hands you never once looked to look.
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to name the tremor, the way my pulse skips when I call,
But your words are folded paper planes that never land at all.
[Chorus]
I'm still here — can you hear? I’m a low alarm in your sleep,
Bottle clinks and nicotine, late texts you never keep.
I'm still here — can you hear? Not a shadow, not a ghost,
Just a kid with trembling fingers, paying for the silence most.
[Verse 2]
Nicotine on my thumb and the coffee gone cold in the cup,
Calluses on my knuckles where I learned to give things up.
I smoke to calm the tremor, I drink to slow the clock,
I call your number at midnight, watch the silence talk.
You blamed my grades — not the nights I breathed through empty rooms,
Said I chose to wreck my body while you counted all the fumes.
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep translating fallout into simple little pleas,
But your answers land like winters that freeze the light in me.
[Chorus]
I'm still here — can you hear? I’m a stubborn bruise that stays,
Ashes on my fingertips and a thousand wasted days.
I'm still here — can you hear? Don't let me be the war,
Where every fight ends with a silence, and every opening is a door.
[Bridge]
You once said, "Grow up," while the heater in the hall went dead,
You left a grocery list, not apologies, for the nights I bled.
You blamed my choices, yes, but not the nights I stayed awake,
You named my falling, not the hands I gave, the breaks I never took to break.
[Confrontation]
You told me I was reckless; I named the nights you weren’t home.
You said you did your best — did your best ever pick up the phone?
[Chorus — Variation]
I'm still here — can you hear? Hear the tremor in my voice,
I’m not asking for perfection, just a chance, just one small choice.
I'm still here — can you hear? Tear down one wall, meet me half-way,
I’ll trade a cigarette for conversation, trade a bottle for a day.
[Outro]
The guitar drops to single strings, the room breathes slow and thin,
If your hand reaches through the doorway, maybe we begin.
I'm still here — can you hear? That's my heart against the floor,
If you listen through the static, we might find the better shore.
