▎LYRICS

This living room's an island since you sailed away
I'm tracing every crack where our love gave way
Shattered frame of us, a ship lost at sea
Flotsam from our voyage still drifting in me
And this dead calm harbor cuts deeper than the gale
I'm drowning in the silence of this tale
If only I could calm this squall inside my chest
If only I'd been anchor, not the test
These lightning words have burned what we built best
Now I'm just driftwood pleading in the tide…
If only…
I battened down the hatches, thought this squall would pass
Like every other shower that just soaked the glass
I waited for your sun to break the clouds in two
But you were charting courses on an ocean I never knew
'Cause I misread the sea's cruel temper
Thought every swell was just another adventure
But the compass spun wild, pointing nowhere
The storm grew silent when you found the nerve—
You lowered the lifeboat, voice so quiet it drowned the roar
"This ship ran aground… I'm gone."
Wait... please wait...
The lighthouse could still guide us home
I swear I'll navigate us through...
And now I'm marooned in the aftermath
Lightning scars still burning a permanent path
Your sun now warms a different latitude
I'm learning how to breathe this salt-soaked rue…
If only…
I'm the lighthouse keeper of unsaid sorrys
Tending a beacon for a love we'll never mend
The tide pulls back… No sail on the horizon
Only your whisper lingers in the wind:
"We've drifted too far from shore..."
