[Intro] [Verse 1] Curtains breathing with the city Dust dancing in fading gold Every corner keeps a version Of the stories we once told The walls still hum your laughter Like it’s caught between the paint But echoes lose their power When you stop calling them fate [Verse 2] I fold the nights we argued Place them gently in a drawer Not every love is failure Sometimes it’s just a closed door There’s a mirror by the window She looks steadier than before Not untouched — just unafraid Of wanting something more [Chorus] I turn the lights off in this room But I don’t turn myself down I let the dark erase the shape Of what no longer fits around No slammed doors, no last words No thunder left to prove Just one quiet switch of power And the courage to move [Drop] (Vocal chops built from “lights off” and “move”, stretched and layered, euphoric supersaw melody rising, deep sidechain pump, airy sustained vocal textures in background) [Verse 3] There’s freedom in small gestures In the click of letting go In knowing I can miss you Without needing you to know The hallway feels much longer When you walk it on your own But every step grows lighter When the leaving is your own [Chorus – Full Energy] I turn the lights off in this room But I don’t turn myself down I let the dark become a bridge Instead of something that could drown No broken glass behind me No bitterness to prove Just one quiet switch of power And the courage to move [Outro] The dark is not an ending. It’s just where I learn to see.
