Typing…

V5.5

[Intro – no drums, keyboard clicks] (Soft typing sounds…) (Delete.) (Typing again.) BGVs: (Mmm…) (Oh…) (Breathe…) Lola (barely above a whisper): It’s funny… How a few little dots… Can still make your heart race… ⸻ [Verse 1] Screen lights up Then fades again Your name still lives Where favorites been I changed the picture Changed the ringtone But somehow… My fingers still know The way back home BGVs: (Home…) I tell myself Don’t be that girl Don’t reopen What finally closed But every lonely hour Makes discipline… Feel heavier Than love ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] One sentence… Turns into five Five turn into Everything I never said BGVs: (Everything…) Cursor blinking Like it’s asking… “You sure?” (Long pause) I don’t know… ⸻ [Chorus] Typing… Deleting… Typing… Breathing… Reading every word Like you’ll somehow hear My heartbeat Through the screen BGVs: (Heartbeat…) Typing… Deleting… Almost believing… One more conversation Could change Everything… (Long pause) … Send? (No.) ⸻ [Verse 2] Outside my window Rain found the glass Cars keep moving Like they ain’t got a past Meanwhile I’m stuck between “Goodbye forever” And “You still awake?” BGVs: (Mmm…) Funny… How closure Can fit Inside one message You’ll never read ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] I memorized Your number Long before I memorized My worth BGVs: (My worth…) Maybe… That’s the part I’m really trying To erase ⸻ [Chorus] Typing… Deleting… Typing… Leaving… Pieces of my heart Inside a draft Nobody Will ever see BGVs: (Nobody…) Typing… Deleting… Quietly healing… Every message I don’t send… Brings me… Back to me ⸻ [Bridge – Rhodes, no drums] (Keyboard clicks stop.) You know what’s dangerous? BGVs: (What?) It ain’t… Missing you… (Long pause) It’s remembering… Exactly… How to reach you… BGVs: (Mmm…) Muscle memory… Still knows The way… Even when My heart… Doesn’t wanna go Back… ⸻ [Final Chorus – layered harmonies] Typing… Deleting… Hands keep shaking… But they ain’t Pressing send Tonight BGVs: (Not tonight…) Typing… Deleting… Slowly believing… Some conversations… Don’t need Replies… To finally End Ad-libs: (Let it go…) (Keep breathing…) (You’re okay…) (Don’t send it…) ⸻ [Outro – no music except Rhodes] (Typing…) … (Delete.) … (Phone locks.) (Silence.)
