These Days

[Instrumental Intro] [Intro] Streetlight flickers, no one's near Curtains drawn but thoughts stay clear Walls don’t talk, but I still hear Clock keeps ticking — disappears These days feel like quiet fear [Verse 1] Mirror shows a tired face Eyes still searching for a place Room is full, but I feel far Mind keeps running where we are Not sure why, but here we are [Pre-Chorus 1] These days I drift, unsure, unseen Wired minds in silent scenes Corners feel too wide to cross Losing track of what I’ve lost Still, I wait for something clean [Chorus 1] These days feel longer than they should I’ve been trying to feel understood In between what fades and stays Half-alive and stuck in place But I still believe I could [Verse 2] Floorboard creaks, I shift again Trying hard to just pretend That I know which way to face That I’m not just chasing space Maybe doubt still has its place [Pre-Chorus 2] These days the air feels cold, but clear Smoke escapes, but I stay here One deep breath, then one more try Not to hide, not to deny I’m not broken — I’m just near [Chorus 2] These days, I speak a little more Step outside and shut the door Even if the dark remains Even if the light feels strange There’s a path I’m leaning toward [Verse 3] Window cracked, I hear the wind Feels like something new begins No big shift, just smaller wins Fewer thoughts that pull me thin Starting where I’ve always been [Bridge] Not afraid to sit alone Not ashamed of what I’ve known Even in the in-between There’s a part of me that’s seen And I’ll build it stone by stone [Outro] These days feel softer than before Still unsure, but not ignored Every echo finds its place Every night gives back some grace And these days, I found the light.
