The line that describes you

Every line on this reel is sung on one of the records. Let it run, stop it where you like, and keep the one that lands.

Language

Now I sleep beside your absence

Like she knew my every key

The right words and the time… you finally got to me

Rain on your face, pride in your chest

I'm so quiet now, baby, so quiet now

You were the first one

Where the wild grass has grown.

I don't know your voice but I know your time

I send you down the tunnel home

You were walking back to me.

You wore my shirt the night you left

A little locked room where the truth could hide.

Maybe my silence had confessed.

I don't know your voice but I know your time

I don't know your voice but I know your time

Let the silence take the tone.

Gonna raise my own perimeter and tear you from the root

I ever wanted — just your voice

No handshake, no token, no credentials in your hand

I used to bend when your silence broke me

A place my heart already knew.

The phone in your hand — I let it smash

Let the silence take the tone.

Loved you wild, loved you jealous

Now every scar has learned my name

I used to pray that you still might know me

Gonna raise my own perimeter and tear you from the root

Somewhere between the lights, You were walking back to me.

I hated every smile you gave

I don't know your voice but I know your time

Every secret in this city walks right past me

You smiled first, then I was smiling

I locked my heart away from you

I’m learning how to live without trust.

Changed all my passwords, baby — hope you don't forget it

I thought you’d call me by the morning

She lay down in my bedroom

Gonna raise my own perimeter and tear you from the root

I used to pray that you still might know me

Like I’d hidden a storm where no one goes.

Tunnelin' through my DMs like the work is never done

I'm so quiet now, baby, so quiet now

Could be you, could be you — give yourself away this time

Your fingers in my hair.

'Cause this time when you knocked, you didn't break it down You stayed, you proved it, turned my whole world around

I'm so quiet now, baby, so quiet now

Tryna social-engineer his way into my trust

All the words you saved arrived too late

Three failed attempts and now you're blacklisted again

Just one more chance to make you mine.

Could be you, could be you — give yourself away this time

I build a sentence, you tear it down

Then she walked to my doorway

long after you're a name.

Then she walked to my doorway

’Cause losing her would hurt me just the same.

Five years later and you're back at my door

You cut the mains and watched the meaning die

I ever wanted — just your voice

Changed all my passwords, baby — hope you don't forget it
