Thumbnim

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When the deadline comes, you follow what they choose. Harry left you breadcrumbs, Focal gave you clues. You call it your own, but the fingerprints remain. One little Ndiaye, and you swear you've changed the game. When the boys go out, you're nowhere to be found. Sharmilla turns around, and you're already out of town. You wear confidence like something you were lent. But every time it matters, you remember where you went. [Pre-Chorus] I know you hate the truth, I know you hate the light. You'd rather blame the knee than admit you lost the fight. You built yourself a kingdom out of everything you stole. But every borrowed crown still leaves you with no throne. [Chorus] You're the ghost in the room when the laughter starts. The name they bring up when they're breaking hearts. You thought you had Ilyas, thought you had him on a chain. But Bunvansh pulled the string, and you fell for it again. You're the ghost in the room, nowhere when it gets loud. Six months gone from NS, still acting like you're proud. You can run from every girl, you can hide behind your pride. But you can't run from the joke when you're the joke inside. [Verse 2] Raptor writes the blueprint, Pickle draws the lines. Mate has the answer, Crellin has the signs. Az Phillips says a word, FPL Tom makes a call. You don't need a transfer page, you just copy them all. You thought a secret made you powerful that night. Told everybody Ilyas had abandoned the fight. But he stayed out there, while you were counting on a lie. Then the truth came knocking, and you vanished from the side. [Pre-Chorus] And Jewel left a scar you never learned to hide. One door closed behind you, and you stopped going outside. Now every time desire comes knocking at your door. You don't chase it anymore, you've been running ever since before. [Chorus] You're the ghost in the room when the laughter starts. The name they bring up when they're breaking hearts. You thought you had Ilyas, thought you had him on a chain. But Bunvansh pulled the string, and you fell for it again. You're the ghost in the room, nowhere when it gets loud. No ball sense, no common sense, still talking like you're proud. You can blame the knee, the girls, the game, the FPL gods. But underneath it all, you're just Thumbnim being Thumbnim. [Bridge] Maybe that's the cruelest part. You never saw the strings. You thought you were pulling them, While we watched you pull yourself. [Chorus] You're the ghost in the room when the laughter starts. The name they bring up when they're breaking hearts. You thought you had it all, but you never had control. Every borrowed piece you wear still leaves you looking cold. You're the ghost in the room... And everyone knows why.
