No Alibi at Your Door (Pt. III — Duet)
I’m standing at your doorway, night still on my skin My shadow looks like someone I don’t fit in My heartbeat knocking louder than my hand Every lie I told is where I stand (yeah... I know it) You’ve been here before with that same worn line Voice shaking like it’s truth this time You say you changed, but I’ve heard that sound Every promise breaks when you’re not around (no more... not this time) I ain’t here to twist it, I ain’t here to hide Every road I took just bent me back inside If you mean it now, don’t let it fade Don’t walk away like every vow you made I’m done with the late-night alibi No smooth excuses, no disguise I’m standing here with open hands Trying to trust what barely stands If you let me in, I won’t slip away No backdoor exit, no delay I’m done with the late-night alibi (ooh yeah… stay… don’t fade…) I rehearsed my reasons, they fall apart Truth cuts cleaner when it hits the heart No more stories I can rearrange All I got left is trying to change I built these walls from nights like this From every almost, every miss But something in your voice tonight Don’t sound like running, don’t sound like flight (maybe… maybe…) If I step inside, I’m staying through If I let you close, I’m risking truth No more shadows walking out No more silence filled with doubt We either break or we begin No more halfway, no more pretend We’re done with the late-night alibi No borrowed lines to get us by No shaking hands, no turning back No fading footprints in the cracks If this is real, then let it stay No midnight running, no escape We’re done with the late-night alibi stay… stay… No alibi… no more tonight… © Ravion-Jalix - 2026
