Pencil Cap Soft Click

[Intro]

(Click) Soft cap —

Lines rest still

[Verse 1]

Desk light pools on quiet paper, graphite soft and clean,

I click the pencil cap once more — a tiny closing scene;

The sentence stays where I left care, no rush to push it far,

If finishing can sound this soft, then I can trust the star.

[Pre-Chorus]

Hold the cap... breathe in...

Ready.

[Chorus]

Pencil cap soft click — I'm putting down,

Little finished yes against my palm;

Lines stay soft a little bright, lines stay soft a little bright,

If the page feels kind, that's fair —

Pencil cap soft click — I'm putting down,

Warm wood quiet hum, quiet grin;

Lines stay soft a little bright, lines stay soft a little bright,

Click it once and I begin.

[Verse 2]

Later on I find the note still waiting by the lamp,

No speech required, just a click that kept a promise small;

I stack the minutes like a soft parade — the cap rests in the sun,

Ordinary care in evening light is how I end the run.

[Pre-Chorus]

Hold the cap... breathe in...

Ready.

[Chorus]

Pencil cap soft click — I'm putting down,

Little finished yes against my palm;

Lines stay soft a little bright, lines stay soft a little bright,

If the page feels kind, that's fair —

Pencil cap soft click — I'm putting down,

Warm wood quiet hum, quiet grin;

Lines stay soft a little bright, lines stay soft a little bright,

Click it once and I begin.

[Bridge]

Not every brave thing needs a stage,

Some of them fit in a cap I saved;

Ink and hope in equal parts —

Evening looks good on a finishing day.

[Final Chorus]

Pencil cap soft click — I'm putting down,

Little finished yes against my palm;

Lines stay soft a little bright, lines stay soft a little bright,

If the page feels kind, that's fair —

Pencil cap soft click — I'm putting down,

Warm wood quiet hum, quiet grin;

Lines stay soft a little bright — and I begin,

Click it once and I begin.

[Outro]

(Click) Soft cap...

Lines stay soft.
