[Intro] [clean fingerpicked electric guitar, melodic electric bass] You ever do the math on a day that didn't count right? Still hit different. [Verse 1] [breathy tenor vocals] We were counting up nothing like it had to go Cheap drinks, cracked glass, stories already told (yeah) If it broke, we ain't fix it, we just let it unfold (mm) Now it's stuck in my chest like a debt I still owe (mm) [Chorus] [layered vocal harmonies, crisp drum kit enters] We were laughing too loud for the weight we ignored Every moment felt free but it's costing me more (yeah, yeah) If I run it back now, would it land like before? Or just fade in the same place it did on the shore? (yeah, yeah, yeah, uh) [Verse 2] [rhythmic baritone vocals, syncopated bass] Sidewalk heat with a plan that we never wrote, uh Every step had a drift like we missed a note, yeah Didn't care if it held, we were letting it go, breathe Like a promise you make just to hear how it sounds when it floats Corner store conversations turned permanent, uh Swore the night had a pulse we could govern it, yeah But the truth got a way of observing shit Now I'm looking back like, what the fuck were we learning in fast? [Bridge] [vocal intensity increases, Rhodes piano accents] Loose ends tied in a knot we ain't checking Every second stretched thin but we called it a blessing Had a habit of dodging the weight of the question Now it sits in my chest like a quiet confession We were good at pretending to balance it, yeah Every risk felt small in the middle of habits Now the past got a way of demanding the damage And I'm stuck doing math I ain't planned to inherit (mm) [Chorus] [full arrangement, soaring harmonies] You can rename it, rearrange it, say it's different, try to frame it But it still comes back the same We were counting up nothing like it had to go Cheap drinks, cracked glass, stories already told If it broke, we ain't fix it, we just let it unfold (let it go, let it go) We were laughing too loud for the weight we ignored (too loud) Felt free but it's costing me more (cost me more) Back now, would it land like before? Or just fade in the same place it did on the shore [Outro] [drums fade, guitar and bass continue] Some days don't add up They just stay with you That's enough (mm, that's enough)
