Intro
Parking gate ticket crumpled in the cupholder Level three, same spot I always take
Verse 1
Walked in with a bag from the spot on Broward Smiled hard, told her she looked better than last week Fluffed the pillow, fixed the remote on the bed rail Sat two hours cracking jokes 'bout the food Told her mama I'd handle the pharmacy run Kissed her forehead, said I'd be back Thursday Waved 'til the elevator swallowed me whole
Pre-chorus
Hand sanitizer still burning my knuckles Fluorescent humming like a hymn nobody wrote
Chorus
Everybody got my number but nobody got my pulse Hold it down so long I forgot what it cost Sitting in this parking lot with the engine off Concrete ceiling, concrete walls, I'm the only one who's soft The only one, the only one
Verse 2
Phone screen bright in a dark garage Three threads open, all of 'em need something Marcus want advice about his lease falling through Keisha venting 'bout her baby father in the group chat Coworker asking can I cover Saturday again Thumb hovering, ain't even left the building yet Nobody typed "how'd it go?" Nobody asked what floor she on
Pre-chorus
This the only room nobody knows the door code Between these walls I don't perform
Chorus
Everybody got my number but nobody got my pulse Hold it down so long I forgot what it cost Sitting in this parking lot with the engine off Concrete ceiling, concrete walls, I'm the only one who's soft The only one, the only one
Verse 3
Nine years old translating prescriptions at Walgreens Mama's English wasn't built for side effects Held my sister's hand through the courthouse hallway Divorce papers heavier than any backpack Never had a meltdown 'cause the schedule was full This garage ain't new, been here since fifteen Different hospital, same wheel, same silence
Verse 4
Forehead on my knuckles, wheel still cold Not dramatic, just quiet, just slow Tears on the Honda logo like they needed somewhere to go Rearview showing someone I barely recognize Strength with no one checking the foundation Ain't strength, just loneliness with better posture Asking for help ain't the weakness I made it Refusing to is just the only habit my hands remember
Verse 5
Scrolled past the group chats, past the shift swap Found one name, the one who never asks for nothing Typed five words then stared at 'em a minute "I'm not okay today, bro" Hit send before the habit could delete it Engine still off but something in my chest turned over
Chorus
Everybody got my number but nobody got my pulse Hold it down so long I forgot what it cost Sitting in this parking lot with the engine off Concrete ceiling, concrete walls, I'm the only one who's soft The only one, the only one
Outro
Five words heavier than everything I carried in Level three, pulling out different than I pulled in
Inside the recording
Parking gate ticket crumpled in the cupholder Level three, same spot I always take
Hand sanitizer still burning my knuckles Fluorescent humming like a hymn nobody wrote
Five words heavier than everything I carried in Level three, pulling out different than I pulled in
