[Intro] (instrumental, clean chorused guitar, sparse) [Verse 1] (tender falsetto, intimate, minimal band) The light is going amber on the wall I hear you folding silence like a shawl You're already halfway out the door But your shadow's staying just a little more [Pre-Chorus] (bass enters, drums building) I'm not asking you to lie to me I'm not begging you to stay I just need one more hour of this ache Before you walk away [Chorus] (full band, orchestral strings, powerful vocal, emotional swell) So go, wherever you land I'll be the ghost in your hand The one you almost kept The promise that you almost meant Go, I won't hold the door I loved you more than "more" And that has to be enough Even when it's not enough [Verse 2] (quieter, vocal melisma, guitar clean again) You said forever like it weighed a ton Like something you could carry, then undone I watched you set it down so carefully Like it was me you were being kind to, not just leaving [Pre-Chorus] (building again, tension rising) I'm not asking you to lie to me I already know the truth I just need one more hour of your face Before it turns to proof [Chorus] (all elements, cathartic, emotional peak) So go, wherever you land I'll be the ghost in your hand The one you almost kept The promise that you almost meant Go, I won't hold the door I loved you more than "more" And that has to be enough Even when it's not enough [Bridge - male rap verse, responding perspective] (male rap vocal, low-key spoken-word flow, chill and atmospheric, restrained delivery, minimal beat under strings) Yeah, you call it a ghost, call it a hand you let go But I was never the storm, I was just something slow Something steady, something you couldn't quite trust 'Cause steady never felt like enough, not for us You keep saying "more" like I ever asked for the name Never needed the promise, just needed you to stay But I get it now, some things ain't built to hold Some things are just weather, some things are just cold So take the amber light, take the shawl you made from us Take whatever's left, I'm not asking for the trust I just needed you to know, before you walk out that door It was never about "more"—it was always just you [Final Chorus] (full arrangement, cathartic but unresolved) So go, wherever you land I'll be the ghost in your hand The one you almost kept The promise that you almost meant Go, I won't hold the door I loved you more than "more" And maybe that's enough Maybe that has to be enough [Outro] (stripped back, guitar alone, fade) (instrumental, unresolved emotional tone, guitar fading into silence)
