Ink on Page 42

[Intro]
[Verse]
Rain taps on the pane
Driving me quite insane
The toy keys start to drift
In a lo-fi shift
The CR-78 is slow
In the warm lamp glow
[Pre-Chorus]
Folded paper in the crease
Searching for a little peace
Will you see the ink?
What will you really think?
[Chorus]
Tucked inside page forty-two
A secret meant for only you
Underneath your desk light
In the middle of the night
Do you feel the flutter too?
Or is it just a point of view?
[Hook]
Blue ink, soft pink
Don't let our hearts sink
Just a note in a book
Give it one little look
[Verse]
Ukulele strings are muted
Every thought is undisputed
Library air was so still
Giving me a sudden thrill
I slipped it in the back
Covered by the binding crack
[Breakdown]
(Faint tape hiss)
(Warped keyboard melody)
(Soft rain falling)
[Bridge]
Warped tape in the deck
I’m a nervous little wreck
Falsetto layers in the air
Do you even know I’m there?
Maybe you will miss it
Maybe you will kiss it
[Chorus]
Tucked inside page forty-two
A secret meant for only you
Underneath your desk light
In the middle of the night
Do you feel the flutter too?
Or is it just a point of view?
[Post-Chorus]
Soft secret shared
Are you even scared?
Just a half-spoken word
Waiting to be heard
[Outro]
