[Verse 1]
One letter on my screen
Just "O"
Like you began a word
Then thought better of it
[Chorus]
O
What were you gonna say?
Were you staying
Were you running away?
O
Hangs in the air like smoke
Half a promise
Half a joke
O
Now I’m reading in between
Every pixel on the screen
[Verse 2]
Maybe it meant "okay"
Maybe it meant "oh no"
Funny how a single curve
Can pull me in this far
[Chorus]
O
What were you gonna say?
Were you staying
Were you running away?
O
Hangs in the air like smoke
Half a promise
Half a joke
O
Now I’m reading in between
Every pixel on the screen
One letter on my screen
Just "O"
Like you began a word
Then thought better of it
[Chorus]
O
What were you gonna say?
Were you staying
Were you running away?
O
Hangs in the air like smoke
Half a promise
Half a joke
O
Now I’m reading in between
Every pixel on the screen
[Verse 2]
Maybe it meant "okay"
Maybe it meant "oh no"
Funny how a single curve
Can pull me in this far
[Chorus]
O
What were you gonna say?
Were you staying
Were you running away?
O
Hangs in the air like smoke
Half a promise
Half a joke
O
Now I’m reading in between
Every pixel on the screen
Musikstyle
Minimalist alt-pop with hushed male vocals, close-miked. Soft clap groove, warm sub bass, and a single bell-like synth motif. Verses intimate and sparse; chorus blooms with airy pads and doubled vocals. Gentle rise into a final, lingering hook that hangs on the last note.
