Lyrics
Description
(Intro)
Clean guitar arpeggio, breathy vocal — a streetlight hum
(Verse 1)
I sit on the stairwell, neon leaking down the wall,
Smile like a movie poster while the raindrops start to fall.
I laugh inside the doorway, play the part I learned so well,
But coat hangers rattle in my chest, where empty echoes swell.
(Pre-Chorus)
People throw their questions like coins into a well,
I toss my practiced answer, watch it sink and never tell.
(Chorus)
In these shadows I'm still here — I say I'm fine, then I disappear.
Words like paper boats that sink beneath the tide,
Is there a hug that holds me, speaks the truth inside?
In these shadows I'm still here — I say I'm fine, then I disappear.
(Verse 2)
When they ask me "How are you?" I hand them glass and sun,
Bottled-up confetti of a laugh for anyone.
My coffee goes cold where warmth used to warm a name,
Keys jangle like a question in an empty, hollow frame.
(Pre-Chorus)
I wear my light like armor, it’s thin against the chill,
There’s a radiator humming and it keeps the silence still.
(Chorus)
In these shadows I'm still here — I say I'm fine, then I disappear.
Words like paper boats that sink beneath the tide,
Is there a hug that holds me, speaks the truth inside?
In these shadows I'm still here — I say I'm fine, then I disappear.
(Bridge - Pre)
I try the mirror — it doesn't lie, it keeps the ledger plain,
A face that learns to smile before it learns to name the pain.
(Bridge - Lift)
I reach for light, a trembling hand to break the night,
All the noise collapses, and something small feels right.
A throat that’s learned to swallow, finds a single ragged sigh,
A falter becomes a promise, and the dark begins to pry.
(Chorus - Variation)
In these shadows I'm still here — I said I was fine, you made me reappear.
Paper boats found anchor on a tide that turned the night,
There is a hug that holds me, and it speaks the truth inside.
In these shadows I'm still here — but now a light is near.
(Outro)
Shadows speak in corners, but they don't own the room,
I keep the laugh for daylight, keep the quiet like a tune.
One small hand, one honest hold — a dawn that learns to sing,
Shadows may remember me, but they won't clip my wings.
