You drifted through the painted halls
Like you already knew the fall
Smiling while the ceiling swayed
Like someone asking to be saved
Tea stains fading on your sleeves
Words disappearing as you speak
And every room you wandered through
Felt colder after losing you
You said
“Nothing here was built to last”
Like you had already seen the ending
(All the roses turning pale)
(All the clocks begin to fail)
If I could rewind
Pull the clock back one more timе
Maybe you’d still be dancing
Through the gardеn in my mind
Now every hallway leads to you
Every dream comes undone too soon
And I still reach into the dark
Like you never really left the room
Your voice still lingers in the walls
Between the distant curtain calls
Like a song caught underneath
The floorboards of my memory
The rabbit ran, the table turned
But some doors only lead downward
And I kept thinking you would wake
Before the whole world slipped away
You said
“One day it all gets quiet”
I thought you meant the rain outside
If I could rewind
Pull the night back into light
Maybe I could stop the moment
You disappeared from sight
Now every hallway leads to you
Every mirror bends the truth
And I still call into the dark
Like somehow you might answer too
The chairs are still set at the table
Your cup untouched beside mine
And somewhere past the garden gate
You’re laughing in another time
Turn the clock back
Just once
One more word
One more night
You said
“Don’t follow me”
But I still do
(Still do…)
(Still do…)
If I could rewind
I would stay there by your side
Hold the world together long enough
To keep you here tonight
But every dream still ends the same
A distant voice calling my way
And somewhere deep beyond the dark
You’re waiting at the tea party again
(Stay…)
