Song Description
A quiet gut-punch about loss, loneliness, and self-reflection this song sits in the space between grief and accountability. It questions why every loved one becomes a memory, blurring the line between fate and self-sabotage, and ends with wondering if the common thread in all these goodbyes might be himself.

HOOK
Why everybody that I love turn into flashbacks?
Why every laugh that we shared feel like a last track?
Why every table that was full got an empty seat?
Why do I toast to the air when it’s time to eat?

Cards on the floor, I just stare at how they fell,
Can’t tell if life shufflin’ crooked or I dealt it myself.
When the smoke clears and it’s only my shadow with me,
I keep starin’ at the mirror like, “Is it really me?”

VERSE
I got ghosts in my call log, numbers I can't dial,
Names saved with a heart turnin' into "last time."
Group chat turned shrine, all the blue bubbles dry,
We was laughin' 'bout forever, now I text the sky.

I see your mom at the store, wearin' that brave face,
Sayin' "baby, you okay?" I feel my chest cave.
I say "yeah, I'm doin' fine," let the lie float free,
’Cause if pain had a voice, it would sound like me.

I still set an extra plate like you runnin' late,
Talk loud to the empty chair just to fill the space.
Play your song in the car, let the bass hit grief,
Every bar that you liked hit different on repeat.

Some left in a flash, some faded like ink,
Some chose a new road, never turned, never blinked.
Every farewell got my fingerprint in the scene,
So when the smoke clears, I keep askin' what it means—"Is it me?"

Can’t tell if life shufflin’ crooked or I dealt it myself.

VERSE
Maybe I push 'em away when I'm pullin' 'em close,
Maybe I joke too hard when I'm really that broke.
Maybe I shut down first when the weather get rough,
Put my phone on "ghost mode," call it self-love.

Maybe I cancel plans ’cause the couch feel safe,
Maybe I never say "stay" ’til it's too damn late.
Maybe pride in my chest like a padlocked gate,
Sayin' "I'll hit you tomorrow," then tomorrow came.

I count backs that I watched while the doorframe shook,
Like a lesson that life keep re-readin' me the book.
Every chapter got a name that I still don't speak,
Every margin full of "should'ves" written crooked and deep.

If the common thread's me, then I gotta unweave,
Learn to show what I feel, not just what I tweet.
So I light one candle for the ones I can't reach,
Tryna forgive life for the rest and forgive me.
