Reconciliation Attempt
by THV Emotive Music

Love can change its rhythm, and true mercy means knowing when to leave.

LYRICS

========================
VERSE 1
I’m not calling just to stir the smoke,
Not to make the silence bleed again.
I know exactly where the pressure broke,
I know where I let go of your hand.
I’m not here to paint the past in gold,
Or make it lighter than it really was.
I just needed you to hear me say it plain:
I know what it cost us, cost us.
(Background vocals: cost us, cost us)

PRE-CHORUS
But if there’s still a little room to hear me,
If honesty can stand here in the light,
Let this be exactly what it needs to be—
One real look, one fair try.
(Ad-lib: that’s all)

CHORUS
I’m not asking for the way it was, no,
I’m not asking you to change your mind tonight.
I just want a second that is honest enough
To tell me if there’s still a reason to try.
If it’s over, say it plain, I can take it true,
I won’t pull at your heart just to make it choose.
But if there’s still a little space for something new,
I’ll meet you halfway, if you want me to.
(Background vocals: halfway, halfway)
(Ad-lib: if you want me to)

VERSE 2
I don’t need a promise dipped in gold,
Don’t say forever if it isn’t there.
I’d rather feel the weight of something cold
Than hold a pretty answer full of air.
Maybe we’re too far to call it back,
Maybe this is all there is to know.
Still I’d rather hear it from your lips
Than let the question echo, echo.
(Background vocals: echo, echo)

POST-CHORUS
Halfway, halfway through,
I won’t force it if it isn’t true.
Halfway, halfway through,
(Background vocals: if there’s room, if there’s room)

BRIDGE
This is me with nothing up my sleeve,
No dramatic last goodbye.
Just one last reach before I leave
The rest of this behind.
And if your heart don’t have my name,
I won’t ask it to pretend.
I just had to give the truth a voice
Before I let this end.
(Ad-lib: let this end)

FINAL CHORUS
I’m not asking for the way it was, no,
I’m not asking for a miracle tonight.
I just want a moment honest enough
To tell me if we’re truly out of time.
If your heart has already closed that door,
I’ll respect what I can’t undo.
But if there’s still a little room for something more,
I’ll meet you halfway through.
Halfway through, halfway through.
Background vocals: halfway through)
(Ad-lib: I’ll meet you there)

OUTRO
One real look, one fair try,
No tears left to dramatize.
If it’s truth, I’ll let it be,
If there’s room, meet me halfway.
Background vocals: meet me halfway)
(Ad-lib: halfway)
