[04:34.00]Soft laugh from a stranger’s table
[04:34.00]Coat slipped from your tired hand
[04:34.00]Bartender polishing an old story
[04:34.00]Letting every silence land
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Breathing slow in a borrowed chair
[04:34.00]Daylight problems turn see‑through
[04:34.00]They can’t find you here
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Heart unclenched in the ember air
[04:34.00]Nothing urgent
[04:34.00]Nothing heavy
[04:34.00]Just the comfort of being aware
[04:34.00]Faded poster curling by the doorway
[04:34.00]Scuffed floor holding footprints of the week
[04:34.00]Wallet humming with untouched cards
[04:34.00]You smile
[04:34.00]But you don’t speak
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Letting all the sharp thoughts blur
[04:34.00]Old worries slide off your shoulders
[04:34.00]Like they never were
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Letting time loosen its hold
[04:34.00]No agenda on the table
[04:34.00]Only room for you to unfold
[04:34.00]Outside
[04:34.00]Engines chase their reasons
[04:34.00]Inside
[04:34.00]Seconds wander slow (Oh)
[04:34.00]You’re not lost
[04:34.00]Just off the radar
[04:34.00]Letting your tired pulse say “go”
[04:34.00]Half-melted candle leans in the center
[04:34.00]Wax river drying mid-curve
[04:34.00]Your phone sleeps
[04:34.00]Face turned downward
[04:34.00]Peace feels like something you deserve
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Soft edges around your name
[04:34.00]All the faces that once drained you
[04:34.00]Fade back where they came
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Just a person and a quiet flame
[04:34.00]In this room you owe nobody
[04:34.00]An answer
[04:34.00]A favor
[04:34.00]A claim
[04:34.00]Someone hums a tune under their breathing
[04:34.00]Coat rack leans like it might confess
[04:34.00]You trace rings on the worn wood surface
[04:34.00]Less thinking
[04:34.00]Less weight
[04:34.00]Less stress
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Nothing chasing from behind
[04:34.00]Tired eyes finally steady
[04:34.00]On a gentler state of mind
[04:34.00]You’re still awake
[04:34.00]Still easy
[04:34.00]Let the long day drift downstream
[04:34.00]If this feeling had an address
[04:34.00]You’d live here in the in‑between
