[verse] low light rooms where people lower their voice not because they’re afraid but because it’s easier to sound reasonable in the dark you explain things slowly like the light might change your mind you choose your words the way you choose exits i let you talk it tells me enough [pre-chorus] you step closer not to touch just to check if i’ll make space for you i don’t where nothing needs to be proven where silence does most of the work and no one asks for permission no version to clean no story to sell just what stays [verse] you say it’s not personal you say it like a habit like something you learned early and never questioned again i don’t interrupt i don’t correct the tone i watch how carefully you avoid saying my name [pre-chorus] you’re not asking for closeness you’re measuring distance waiting to see how much i’ll allow i stay right here low light rooms [crowd : low light rooms!] you seem relieved when i don’t translate what you’re doing [bridge] i know these rooms the angles, the pauses, the way power pretends to be polite i know how people lean when they think they’re invisible how they breathe when they believe the dark agrees i don’t move first i don’t need the light to know where i stand [chorus] low light rooms [crowd : low light rooms!] no drama no scene no evidence low light rooms [crowd : low light rooms!] just the moment where you realise i was never waiting [outro] low light rooms i leave them as they are you stay a little longer adjusting what you didn’t say
