Half Past Two

Şarkı Sözleri

[Verse 1] My coat leaves beads beside the door The gallery is nearly still A guard turns pages at his desk Rain threads the glass above the hill [Pre-Chorus] I keep my ticket folded small Like proof I came here on my own [Chorus] I walk the rooms at half past two Past faces painted long ago Their eyes keep holding what they knew While water writes against the windows I stop where no one waits for me And let the quiet take its time [Verse 2] A bronze horse dark with age and touch A bowl of fruit that will not spoil My shoes make little sounds on stone The day feels borrowed, hushed, and oil-slick [Pre-Chorus] The benches shine with dampened wool I sit and watch the afternoon [Chorus] I walk the rooms at half past two Past faces painted long ago Their eyes keep holding what they knew While water writes against the windows I stop where no one waits for me And let the quiet take its time [Bridge] One portrait wears my mother’s mouth Or maybe only that same ache I look until the room turns soft Then leave before the spell can break [Final Chorus] I walk the rooms at half past two Past faces painted long ago Their eyes keep holding what they knew While water writes against the windows I stop where no one waits for me And let the quiet take its time [Outro] My ticket warms inside my hand The rain keeps falling as I leave
