Audience of One

Haruhii

Yeah
Still here

Smiles crack when the lights come on
Every word feels rehearsed
Built a bond on borrowed time
Watched it thin out first
Tried to stay, tried to listen
Tried to read between
But presence fades the moment
Something real is seen

If this is the role
I'm meant to play
Then let the silence
Say what they won't say

If I'm standing on this stage again
With nobody to crown
I'll turn the ache into rhythm
Let it spill out loud
I gave more than I got
Still holding, still whole
If I'm standing on this stage again
I sing to an audience of one

Every laugh cuts a little
When it disappears too fast
They swear they're always present
Till it asks them to last
They love the shape of comfort
Not the weight of truth
Loyalty looks different
When it's asking you

If this is the cost
Of staying real
Then let it hurt
I know how to heal

If I'm standing on this stage again
With nobody around
I'll turn the quiet into thunder
Let it shake me out
I've learned where echoes go
When the room goes cold
If I'm standing on this stage again
I sing to an audience of one

I didn't want worship
I wanted proof
Someone to stay
When it wasn't smooth

If I'm standing on this stage again
I won't dim the light
Turn the fracture into focus
Make it sharp, make it mine
I stood through empty rooms
Learned how to belong
If I'm standing on this stage again
I'm enough when I sing alone

No applause
Still standing
