It’s 12:52, got this itch in my head Ain’t guilt, ain’t dread—just something unsaid What haunts me now is the slip of time A missed connection I can't unwind Yeah, I could be sleeping, yeah, I could be reading But instead, I’m here, midnight bleeding Writing non-sensual thoughts in a haze Thinking 'bout you in endless waves Tangled up in quantum threads Of all the things we never said Was it fate or just pretend? Will this loop ever end? You slipped through without a sound Still I circle back around In the dark, I can't unfeel What you couldn't feel... Was I too much, or never enough? Should I post this song, or call that bluff? My mind’s caught up in a knot again Quantum threads of what could’ve been You felt guilt—was that even true? Or just a label they handed you To push away what felt too real To hide what you refused to feel Tangled up in quantum threads Of all the things we never said Was it fate or just pretend? Will this loop ever end? You slipped through without a sound Still I circle back around In the dark, I can't unfeel What you couldn't feel... So much is unknown, so much I just want to know I’m not a villain, you’re not a saint—maybe we’re both restrained One in the light, the other in dark Quite literally… I wake, you sleep. You sleep, I wake We both yearn for something different I speak plain, you speak in riddles But somehow, still… We both still feel the middle Tangled up in quantum threads In mirrored lives, unsaid regrets You speak in signs, I spell it out But both of us still carry doubt I’m waking while you’re dreaming deep You're guarded while I overspeak You could never truly feel I will miss you I want to sing this in blues... But I promised I wouldn’t do blues anymore. Promised I’d move on, Promised I’d stop digging in the dirt of what could’ve been. So I’m whisperin’ instead— To no one in particular. Just the night. Just the quiet hum of something I can’t name. There’s still a part of me Stuck in that hour 12:52 Thinkin’ of you.
