Şarkı sözleri

He was born in November, under a low grey sky
No one wrote it down — the nurses moved on
He always took the second seat from the wall
Close enough to hear, too far to be called on
He drew small maps of places no one knew
In the margins of the notebook no one asked to see
His mother packed his lunch in a blue plastic box
He ate it facing east, beside the gym wall
The other kids had corners, codes, and names for things
He watched the whole system from the outside looking in
Almost there, never quite
A hand away from ordinary light
He could feel the warmth, he knew the shape of it
But something in the wiring wouldn't let him sit
He got a job that paid enough to disappear
A beige-walled room, a window over someone's roof
He sent his mother texts that said he was doing fine
He wasn't lying — but he wasn't telling the truth
He fell for someone quiet at a Tuesday bar
She smiled at him once, across an almost-empty room
He practised what to say for seventeen whole days
By then she'd found somebody who already knew
Almost there, never quite
A hand away from ordinary light
He could feel the warmth, he knew the shape of it
But something in the wiring wouldn't let him sit
It wasn't tragedy
It wasn't anything dramatic
Just Tuesday
And then Wednesday
And then the months
He still takes the second seat from the wall
In waiting rooms, on trains, in any room at all
He's learned the art of being unobtrusive
Of taking up exactly the right amount of air
Some nights he opens up the maps he used to draw
The places no one knew — they're still just his
He doesn't know if that's a kind of freedom
Or just the long way round to being missed
Almost there
A hand away
He folds the map
And waits for Wednesday
