[Intro] Thin glass Blue hum No sleep Day done [Verse 1] Rain mark on the window pane Two missed calls, no name Left shoe by the door again Same coat, different stain Hall light cuts across the floor Key turns once, I check the lock Old receipt beside the drawer Small clock keeps a steady knock [Chorus] Still face, steady hands I don’t bend, I don’t ask Let the whole room lose its shape I stay right where I stand Still face, steady hands Keep the truth beneath the mask If you hear me, keep it low Let the quiet do the task [Verse 2] Cold cup resting by the sink Phone face down, I let it ring Every word can make you think Every promise costs a thing Back stair, worn rail, dim view Footsteps stop outside my door I know what the silence knew I don’t need to hear it more [Bridge] One breath under the ceiling One thought I won’t explain No sign, no grand revealing Just water on the pane I count the cracks in plaster I wait until they pass The room gets smaller faster I keep my steady mask [Chorus] Still face, steady hands I don’t bend, I don’t ask Let the whole room lose its shape I stay right where I stand Still face, steady hands Keep the truth beneath the mask If you hear me, keep it low Let the quiet do the task [Outro] Thin glass Blue hum No sleep Day done
