Lời bài hát
[Verse 1]
You showed up late
Hoodie half-zipped
Keys in your hand
Eyes on your shoes
Laughing at nothing
Tracing the railing
Like you were scared to tell the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
City’s just a murmur down below us
Your phone keeps lighting up your face
You say
“It’s probably nothing
I’m just tired”
But your fingers won’t stay in one place
[Chorus]
Midnight on the balcony
You’re talking
But you’re miles from me
Saying you’re fine while you stare at the street
And I know that you don’t mean it
Midnight on the balcony
Cool air
You’re not holding me
I hear every word you’re trying not to speak
And I know that you don’t mean it
[Verse 2]
You change the subject
Ask how my day went
Sip from a bottle you don’t even like
Laugh in the gaps
Overexplaining
Every little nothing
Every “it’s alright”
[Pre-Chorus]
I can feel you packing up in pieces
Folding all your colors into gray
You say
“I’m just overthinking lately”
But you’ve been drifting all the way
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
So say it once
Say it honest
If we’re fading
Let it fall
Let it fall
Or take my hand
Lean into me
If you want this
You can call
You can call my name
[Chorus]
You showed up late
Hoodie half-zipped
Keys in your hand
Eyes on your shoes
Laughing at nothing
Tracing the railing
Like you were scared to tell the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
City’s just a murmur down below us
Your phone keeps lighting up your face
You say
“It’s probably nothing
I’m just tired”
But your fingers won’t stay in one place
[Chorus]
Midnight on the balcony
You’re talking
But you’re miles from me
Saying you’re fine while you stare at the street
And I know that you don’t mean it
Midnight on the balcony
Cool air
You’re not holding me
I hear every word you’re trying not to speak
And I know that you don’t mean it
[Verse 2]
You change the subject
Ask how my day went
Sip from a bottle you don’t even like
Laugh in the gaps
Overexplaining
Every little nothing
Every “it’s alright”
[Pre-Chorus]
I can feel you packing up in pieces
Folding all your colors into gray
You say
“I’m just overthinking lately”
But you’ve been drifting all the way
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
So say it once
Say it honest
If we’re fading
Let it fall
Let it fall
Or take my hand
Lean into me
If you want this
You can call
You can call my name
[Chorus]
Phong cách âm nhạc
Clean indie-pop band feel, mid-tempo. Tight drums and warm bass locking a groove, chiming delay guitar and subtle synth pads. Verses stay intimate and conversational; chorus lifts with doubled male vocals, bright overheads, and a simple shout-along hook. Bridge strips back to bass and vocal before a final, bigger chorus with extra harmonies and tambourine.
