[Intro] [Verse 1] The room has been quiet lately The kind of quiet that remains After someone closes a door But leaves behind the rain Your coffee gets cold beside you You forget the window’s open wide And the morning slips away again Without asking you outside [Pre-Chorus] Some seasons stay longer Than we expect them to Some skies need a little time Before they turn blue [Chorus] So take this tired shoulder Just until the night is gone A little light on the table A place to rest when you’re tired of holding on You don’t have to tell me Where the shadows came from I’ll be somewhere near the doorway If you ever want the sun [Verse 2] There’s a flower in the window That you stopped trying to save But somehow it keeps reaching Through the cracks it found a way Maybe we’re all just waiting For the snow to disappear Maybe some things grow quietly When nobody is near [Pre-Chorus] And I won’t count the days Or ask what they became Some things are meant to wander Before they find their way [Chorus | wider layered guitars with warm overdrive, atmospheric textures expand, melodic bass remains prominent, fuller drums with controlled dynamics, vocal opens naturally with light doubles, emotional release through texture rather than power] So take this tired shoulder Just until your hands remember How it feels to hold a flame Without fearing it will burn You don’t have to promise Tomorrow or forever Some lights stick there beside us Until the dark is no longer [Bridge] If someday you find the spring That you were looking for If you don’t need this little light By the corner of your door I’ll still be glad it found you For a moment in the cold Like a coat you wore in winter Then returned when you got home [Final Chorus] So keep this tired shoulder Until you don’t need it anymore Until the room feels like your own Until you open up the door And if you never look up I’ll understand somehow Some things stick there beside us And help us through the now [Outro] A little light on the table… A little warmth before the dawn. ——————— Written and produced by @vinnyleaf Vinnyleaf Music 2026
