sxmrxxt - don't wait up lyrics

[intro]
“… the night i knew you’d still read it.”

[hook]
don’t wait up, i won’t return
let the porch light softly burn
i’ve packed silence, lessons learned
no more bridges left to turn

[verse 1]
you looked for hope in a tired routine
lit my name in a glow unseen
held your breath in a split+screen scene
played my silence like a violin lean
but i walked where the pain felt cleaner
took the backdoor like a ghosted dreamer
left no notes on your cracked demeanor
just a scent in your old arena
we grew sharp in a tangled tether
spoke in storms and called it weather
i drew lines, you blurred them better
still, we couldn’t hold forever
so, i dipped when the sky felt wider
dropped your name from my inside rider
let the air grow soft and lighter
no more tries — just truth and lighter
[hook]
don’t wait up, i won’t return
let the porch light softly burn
i’ve packed silence, lessons learned
no more bridges left to turn

[verse 2]
wrote you out like a final closure
no ill will, just quiet composure
used to bleed for a fake exposure
now i heal in a dim enclosure
texts unread, still marked “delivered,”
but the love? it’s gone, unslivered
you stayed still while i quaked and shivered
now the ties we held feel withered
no reply is the cleanest letter
no “what if” could make it better
i chose peace — not bold, but clever
let your memory float, untether
so, don’t call when the sky gets colder
don’t look back over your shoulder
we were once — not now, not older
just a pause that never got bolder

[hook]
don’t wait up, i won’t return
let the porch light softly burn
i’ve packed silence, lessons learned
no more bridges left to turn
[breakdown]
“if you loved me right… you’d let me go quiet.”

[outro]
don’t wait up, i won’t return
my goodbye was firm, not stern
love once sparked… now doesn’t burn
