Title: THE EDGE OF US [Intro — Rhodes piano, vinyl crackle, bass pulse, 8 bars] [Verse 1 — voice enters, low, intimate, tired] We stood on the edge of us, One step left — one step lost. You said nothing, I said too much, Now the silence is a crutch. [Chorus — full, warm, aching, hypnotic] I still feel you in the dark, A whisper of a spark. We were almost — We were almost. [Verse 2 — deeper, more weight, nostalgic] I trace the shape of what we were, A map of skin and blurred desire. Your voice still lingers in the air, Like smoke that stays — like smoke that dares. [Bridge — spoken, close mic, warm, beat drops] We didn't break. We just… faded. Not a crash — a slow goodbye. And I'm still standing at the door, Not sure if I should knock — or cry. [Final Chorus — full, warm, powerful, voice cracks] I still feel you in the dark, A whisper of a spark. We were almost — We were almost… [Outro — Rhodes piano fades, voice whispers, fading] Almost… Almost… Still almost…
