When No One Was Home

[Intro] Another slide. Another nod. The air tastes like cold coffee. Then the room tilts… and she’s standing there. [Verse 1] I keep my back straight, pen ready in hand. Numbers drift across the screen. Someone laughs at a joke I missed. My face in the black laptop lid looks older than this morning. [Pre-Chorus 1] The voices thin. The table stretches wide. And there you are — bare feet on the carpet, looking straight through me. [Chorus 1] Oh little me… with that quiet searching face. You tilt your head like you barely know my name. Oh-oh… You left the window open just to taste the night. Now I lock the door twice. Oh little me… what did they do with us? [Verse 2] I answer you under my breath: “I had to grow up. Bills don’t wait. Someone has to stay solid.” You watch my mouth, then look at the empty chair beside me. [Pre-Chorus 2] You don’t speak. You only step closer and rest one small hand right on my chest. [Chorus 2] Oh little me… you see the polished version they like. I say it was needed… quiet took its share. Oh-oh… oh… You used to spin until the sky went soft. Now the hours drift by and leave no mark. Oh little me… I stay so still inside these walls. [Bridge] You whisper almost nothing: “You got the keys… the quiet rooms…” Your eyes stay open. Soft as dust: “You stopped dancing when no one was home.” [Final Chorus] Oh little me… I can’t outrun the way you look. All my answers fall quiet in your hands. Oh-oh… oh-oh… You thought the world would wait. I taught myself it never does. Oh little me… I’m still here… but I don’t know if you are. [Outro] Someone says my name. I blink. The carpet is empty. I give the practiced smile and answer, “Yes. I’m still with you.” --- Lyrics © 2026 TrixTuneX All Rights Reserved. Visuals: Created with Grok · Music: Suno Exclusively available on Suno.
