[Intro | filtered glow, dry close vocal] I was almost fine I was almost fine I was almost fine Then you said my name [Verse 1 | low groove enters, breath tucked under the beat] There’s a light in the hall I don’t turn on anymore There’s a coat on the chair From a life I wore before Your cup’s in the cabinet Turned backward on purpose I still know your footsteps I still hate that I know this [Pre-Chorus | bass opens, claps far away] Don’t ask me why I don’t know why Don’t ask me where It went inside [Chorus | full French house lift, stacked human-vocoder doubles] Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply [Post-Chorus | chopped vocal loop, warm crowd shadow] I had it in my mouth I had it in my mouth I had it in my mouth Then it left my face [Verse 2 | groove tightens, vocal almost spoken] There’s a glass by the bed With the moon in the rim There’s a shirt I keep folding But I never put in You touch my shoulder I leave my skin I laugh like a person Who is not living in [Pre-Chorus | drums pull back, pulse stays low] Don’t ask me why I don’t know why Don’t ask me where It went inside [Chorus | brighter return, melancholy under shine] Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply [Bridge | half-time haze, perspective shifts, whispered doubles] The word was stay The word was stay I kept it there Behind my teeth You walked away I let you leave Now every time You say my name I taste the word I didn’t say [Breakdown | one-beat silence, dry vocal exposed] I was almost fine I was almost fine I was almost fine Then you said my name [Final Chorus | euphoric lift, crowd-ready repetition] Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply [Outro | filters closing, bare human voice remains] I had it in my mouth I had it in my mouth I had it in my mouth Then it left my face Something inside Something inside Something inside Won’t let me reply
