### [Intro] *(Soft tape hiss. Distant heartbeat.)* 3:33. Every night... The same minute. The same door. Waiting. --- ### [Verse 1] I never open it. It opens for me. No sound. No fear. Just a room filled with mornings that never happened. Pictures I never took. Songs I never wrote. People I almost loved. Lives I almost lived. --- ### [Pre-Hook] Maybe... dreams aren't made of sleep. Maybe... they're made of choices we never chose. --- ### [Hook] Take me back... Just once more. To the place between goodbye and hello. Where nothing is broken. Nothing is missing. Everything still has a chance. --- ### [Verse 2] I saw my younger self. He didn't ask what happened. He only smiled like he already knew. We sat without talking. Funny... For the first time in years... I felt understood. Then morning started knocking. Neither of us answered. --- ### [Bridge] *(Female voice, warm and distant)* Stay... The sun can wait... Some hearts wake up too early... --- ### [Final Hook] Take me back... Not to escape. To remember. Who I was... before the noise. Before the rush. Before I learned how to pretend. Take me back... One last time. --- ### [Outro] 3:34. The room was gone. But... for the rest of the day... I smiled like I'd been somewhere real.
