Lirik

Fluorescent light on concrete walls
Maps laid out in narrow halls
Names reduced to lines and ink
Every move defined in sync
Routine set, no room to bend
Patterns built to reach the end
No questions raised, no need to speak
Just something measured, clean and precise
Distance set before the start
You stay outside, you play the part
Close enough to read it clear
Far enough to not stay near
Every step is placed in line
Nothing taken, nothing mine
What it is and what it seems
Never meet in between
Third floor flat with broken heat
View locked down across the street
Same arrival every day
Black car stops, then moves away
Smoke and gold that catch the light
But something doesn't sit quite right
Hands that linger on the glass
Eyes that drift as people pass
Sometimes I step inside for show
Keep it brief, then let it go
She looks once, then looks again
Like she's placing where I've been
Close enough to read it clear
Far enough to not stay near
Every step is placed in line
Nothing taken, nothing mine
What it is and what it seems
Never meet in between
Green light comes without delay
No shift in tone, just proceed as planned
I take the seat I've left untouched
This time I don't pull away
Words exchanged, controlled and slow
Nothing more than she should know
But over time the rhythm bends
She fills the space I never send
Details surface piece by piece
Enough to build what's underneath
She speaks more than she intends
I mark the parts, ignore the rest
Stay within what's understood
Don't confuse it for something good
Close enough to read it clear
Far enough to not stay near
Every step is placed in line
Nothing taken, nothing mine
What it is and what it seems
Never meet in between
Final pass along the route
Distance kept, no second move
Gate secure, location set
Everything accounted, met
From across I watch her wait
Same seat held, a different state
Eyes still search the passing frame
Like something's missing without a name
Some lines hold and never break
Some are crossed without a trace
You see it once, then let it go
Because it's not yours to hold
What she felt and what I did
Never meant to coexist
Close enough to leave a mark
Far enough to stay apart
Every moment placed and gone
Like it never carried on
What remains she'll never see
What it cost stays with me
Backpack light before first light
Window closed on fading night
Engines hum above the ground
City shrinks without a sound
Nothing kept, no trace to prove
Still something follows when I move
