Almost Letting Go

Soft hum, barely there
The light came in too slow today

You left your cup by the window
Steam still curling like a thought
Said you'd be gone before the silence
But the silence never stopped

And i keep almost letting go
But the echo holds too long
Your name is dust inside a song
That fades before the final note

Your coat still hangs like you might come back
Creases where your shoulders fell
I try to move, but time folds inward
A loop i know too well

And i keep almost letting go
But the echo holds too long
Your name is dust inside a song
That fades before the final note

There's a sound before a door shuts
A feeling before it's real
I hold it like it's something solid
But it slips just like you feel

And i keep almost letting go
Still standing where you left the glow
Your name is dust inside a song
That fades before the final note

Before the final note
Before the final
