Original lyric sketch · Fictional voice · Lyrics only · The table as a notebook
Verse
A pencil on the table,
a window holding light;
I wrote down the missing garnish
and let the words sit overnight.
Refrain
There is a little room beside the plate for one more word.
Let the room keep breathing.
Let the words arrive.
Leave a little space for what is still alive.
