Lyrics
I been thinking 'bout it longer than I planned to
Turning small moments into something I can stand to
I don't spiral, I just pace around the edges
Cut the truth into pieces I can message
Everybody wants clarity, I want timing
Every thought feels louder when I stop trying
I don't say much, but my head keeps talking
Whole conversations happen while I'm walking
I got habits that look like discipline
And discipline that feels like hiding in it
I keep things light so they don't ask me why
Smile like I'm good, then overthink the ride
I don't miss you like a song on repeat
More like static when the room gets too quiet for me
If I name it, it turns real too fast
So I let it stay half-said, half-past
I don't stall, I just circle the thought
Call that patience, call that getting caught
I'm still thinking about it, not enough to speak
Just enough to keep it close to me
Didn't chase it, didn't shut it down
Just let it live where it doesn't make a sound
I don't need it to stay or go
I just need it not to own me though
I'm still thinking about it, yeah
But I don't need it to answer back
I been running mental laps around a sentence
Trying not to trip on what it represents
Everybody got advice they wanna give me
I just nod 'cause it's easier than defending
I don't play the victim, I just note the cost
Every time I hesitate I pay it off
I learned how to live inside the almost
Where nothing's broken but nothing's honest
I reply late, not 'cause I don't care
I just don't trust how fast I get there
Some feelings move quicker than my sense does
I like distance 'cause it gives me leverage
I been good at keeping doors unlocked
Still acting surprised when nobody knocks
If I sound calm, don't read it wrong
I just learned how to carry it along
I don't freeze, I just let it breathe
Call that space, call that weak
I'm still thinking about it, not enough to speak
Just enough to keep it close to me
Didn't chase it, didn't shut it down
Just let it live where it doesn't make a sound
I don't need it to stay or go
I just need it not to own me though
I'm still thinking about it, yeah
But I don't need it to answer back
Funny how the mind keeps score
Even when you don't want more
I didn't lose, I didn't win
I just stayed too long within
Every almost leaves a trace
Every pause still takes up space
I don't hate the way I am
I just wish I chose it then
I'm still thinking about it, that's the truth
Not enough to call it you
If it fades, I'll let it fade
If it stays, it'll stay the same
I don't need a sign or sign-off note
I don't need closure, I just cope
I'm still thinking about it, yeah
But I'm walking while I do
Still moving
Still me
Still thinking
Just not stuck
