Verse 1 I turn the lights down in my head, Let the noise sleep in someone else’s bed. I don’t disappear, I just breathe, I’m learning how to choose me. No alarms, no apologies, No “are you okay?” hovering over me. I walk alone, but I’m not lost, This quiet feels like it’s worth the cost. --- Pre-Chorus (beat drops, almost silence) If I don’t answer right away, It doesn’t mean I drifted away. --- Chorus (soft, melodic, catchy) I’m okay, don’t worry about me, I’ll come back if I need somebody. And if I don’t come running through, It’s not ‘cause I don’t care about you. I’m just taking my time, Yeah, I’m taking my time. --- Post-Chorus (unexpected, playful / minimal beat) Mm… Just breathing. Just being. --- Verse 2 (spoken-sung, rhythmic, modern) I charge my heart like a dying phone, No signal bars when I’m not alone. Funny how peace sounds a little like Nothing at all, and that’s what I like. I used to feel bad for being gone, Now I let the feeling come… then run. It’s not selfish, it’s survival, Loving myself feels kinda vital. --- Pre-Chorus (harmonies creep in) I don’t owe the world a constant smile, I just need a moment… maybe a while. --- Chorus (slightly fuller, bass enters) I’m okay, don’t worry about me, I’ll come back if I need somebody. And if I don’t come running through, It’s not ‘cause I don’t care about you. I’m just taking my time, Yeah, I’m taking my time. --- Bridge (surprising shift — stripped + vocal loop) Maybe being alone Isn’t lonely at all. Maybe I needed To stop being available To hear myself talk. (soft laugh / breath) --- Final Chorus (warm, confident, light groove) I’m okay, don’t worry about me, I’m learning how to love me quietly. And if I stay a little out of sight, It’s just me getting myself right. I’ll be fine, I’ll be kind, I’m just taking my time. --- Outro (fade, whisper + soft synth) I’m not gone… I’m just… recharging.
