[INTRO | distant ocean ambience, warped tape hiss] I been gettin’ harder to reach lately… [VERSE 1 | conversational, detached] Missed three calls, left ‘em unread Sleep all day, stay up instead Sink into the couch again TV glow and medicine Friends ask where I been these days I type half a reply, then fade Don’t got energy to explain Why everything feels far away [CHORUS | simpler, more melodic, less chant-like] I come in low tide Then disappear again You reach for me sometimes But I’m already gone I don’t know why I keep pulling away Maybe it’s easier Than being seen this way [VERSE 2 | more human detail] Dirty dishes in the sink Same clothes thrown across the room Sunlight cut through the blinds today Still felt like midnight in here You used to drag me out at night Drive with nowhere else to go Now I just watch headlights move From the window by the floor [CHORUS | repeat, fuller guitars] I come in low tide Then disappear again You reach for me sometimes But I’m already gone I don’t know why I keep pulling away Maybe it’s easier Than being seen this way [BRIDGE | quiet realization] I kept thinkin’ I’d come back around… But the distance started feelin’ normal [FINAL SECTION | refrain instead of huge chorus] Maybe I was easier to love Before I disappeared into myself Maybe I was easier to reach Before every day started feelin’ the same [OUTRO | fading ambient guitars] …low tide again
