Lyrics

I thought the timing meant something
I thought your tone gave it away
Built a spark out of a passing glance
Hung on every word you didn't say
I filled the space with questions
You filled it with delay
And I called that patience
When I should've walked away
I let a maybe turn to hope
Then watched it disappear
You were never leading me on
But I still followed you here
It was almost a thing
But mostly in my head
A scene I wrote from silence
A look I misread
You were just being kind
I was writing a song
You were standing still
But I kept moving on
You didn't leave me
There was nothing to miss
It was almost a thing
But it wasn't ever this
I traced a story in your pauses
Painted warmth in every grin
You were just being human
But I thought I saw you let me in
I made meaning out of rhythm
Found signs in the routine
But sometimes it's just comfort
Not something in between
You didn't owe me feeling
You didn't play a part
But I still made a moment
Out of a one-sided start
It was almost a thing
But mostly pretend
A house of cards built
On what I thought you meant
You weren't even trying
And I was all in
You didn't pull away
I just thought we'd begin
You didn't ghost me
I just filled in the script
It was almost a thing
But none of it ever clicked
I guess I wanted something
So bad I made it true
You were just passing through
I stayed and called it you
It was almost a thing
But mostly projection
A quiet echo
Of my own reflection
You didn't love me
You didn't lead
I just needed something
So I planted a seed
You didn't break me
But I still felt the sting
It was almost a thing
But it wasn't anything
