歌词

[Intro]
[Verse]
The radiator hums a low A minor chord
Staring at the ceiling, feeling slightly bored
Shifted a milk crate, found a blue spiral spine
A dusty relic from a much simpler time
Ninety-seven scribbles on a yellowed page
A tiny architect locked inside a cage
The smell of cedar and the graphite smear
Resurrecting every long-forgotten year
[Hook]
Half-finished lines in a world so wide
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
Just a kid with a pen and a grand design
Chasing a light that forgot to shine
It’s a heavy anchor for a light routine
Living in the spaces that are in between
Yeah, it’s just the sketches of a ghost I knew
Painting my gray sky a shade of blue
[Verse]
I drew a mansion with a moat and a bridge
Now I’m just cleaning out the back of the fridge
There’s a rocket ship stalled on the margins there
Next to a grocery list for some kitchenware
I wanted to be a pilot or a king of the hill
Now I’m just a master of the monthly bill
Multisyllabic dreams in a monosyllable life
Cutting through the quiet like a butter knife
[Hook]
Half-finished lines in a world so wide
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
Just a kid with a pen and a grand design
Chasing a light that forgot to shine
It’s a heavy anchor for a light routine
Living in the spaces that are in between
Yeah, it’s just the sketches of a ghost I knew
Painting my gray sky a shade of blue
[Bridge]
The trumpet loops and the vinyl pops
The clock on the wall never really stops
It’s not a tragedy, it’s just how it goes
Wearing the weight of the clothes I chose
But those crooked stars and the jagged sun
Remind me of the race that I haven't run
[Verse]
I see the charcoal smudges on my thumb today
A bit of that magic hasn't slipped away
It anchors the boredom of the nine-to-five
Keeps the small flicker of the spark alive
No grand redemption, no cinematic end
Just an old notebook like a silent friend
The coffee is cold and the streetlights blink
Drowning my thoughts in a bottle of ink
[Hook]
Half-finished lines in a world so wide
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
Just a kid with a pen and a grand design
Chasing a light that forgot to shine
It’s a heavy anchor for a light routine
Living in the spaces that are in between
Yeah, it’s just the sketches of a ghost I knew
Painting my gray sky a shade of blue
[Outro]
