[verse 1 | vocals : restrained, low, controlled | instrumental : sparse electric guitar, low bass pulse, brushed drums | energy : low] morning makes the room look harmless like it never held a sound last night’s makeup on my collar smudged enough to still hang round there’s a little cut across my hand small enough to call it dumb just the kind of tiny damage people laugh off by noon [pre-chorus | vocals : close, detached | instrumental : tension held, drums restrained, cold reverb | energy : low] voices low cups rinsed clean everybody moving like it means nothing [chorus | vocals : controlled, colder | instrumental : wider guitars, heavier bass, steady drums | energy : medium] nothing happened that’s the version going round then why do i feel the shape of it in everything calmed down nothing happened that’s what settles on the ground then why do i feel the shape of it in everything calmed down [verse 2 | vocals : dry, steady | instrumental : muted guitar, bass forward, minimal drums | energy : low-medium] i say “yeah, i think you’re right” like the line might help it stick like if i can say it softly i can make the whole thing fit window cracked and smelling morning chair pushed almost back in place every surface looks corrected except the one inside my face [pre-chorus | vocals : restrained, closer | instrumental : bass sustained, drums pull back | energy : low] heads nod once no one stays everybody leaves it where it breaks least [chorus | vocals : controlled, darker | instrumental : fuller drums, dark guitar swells | energy : medium] nothing happened that’s the version going round then why do i feel the shape of it in everything calmed down nothing happened that’s what settles on the ground then why do i feel the shape of it in everything calmed down [bridge | vocals : nearly spoken, cold | instrumental : stripped back bass, distant guitar decay | energy : very low] my hand still stings when water hits like it remembers what the room forgets i could call it nothing i could let that stand but something in me hesitates where everyone else lands [final chorus | vocals : tired, controlled | instrumental : heavy low end, restrained drums, wide guitar texture | energy : medium] nothing happened that’s the version going round then why do i feel the shape of it in everything calmed down nothing happened say it clean and say it proud then why do i feel the shape of it in everything calmed down [outro | vocals : dry, almost spoken | instrumental : stripped back, cold guitar decay | energy : very low] they told me nothing happened so why don’t i buy it
