the plug hangs between your fingers, one held breath before the dark 🔮
Warm tropical-house at 114 bpm with plucked synths, soft mallets and a smoky alto, for the second before a hard conversation.
Listen to the full catalog: / @ivysterlingmusic
for the plug in your fingers...
you reached for the cord and stopped halfway, plug dangling between your fingers.
you know turning off the light means admitting the night is broken.
neither of you has the words yet, and the sentence is still hanging across the floor.
we're standing in the middle of a breaking wall.
the cord is hanging mid-air by the baseboard trim.
for the one who looked away and left the quiet choice to the other.
a heavy quiet is resting on the window sill and the brass is cooling.
do you turn it off, or wait one more second in the glow?
a borrowed calm sits in your open palm, the metal prong resting there.
for fans of melodic pop and tropical house that stay soft and low-lit.
warm plucked synths and a rolling bass hold the room steady while you find the words.
a close-mic smoky alto for the hour you spend rehearsing what to say.
you lost the argument before you could arrive, and the shadow on the paint keeps stretching.
just let the darkness take the room tonight.
Lyrics
Unplug the lamp and let the amber shadows fall
We’re standing in the middle of a breaking wall
The cord is hanging mid-air by the baseboard trim
While all the light we built is turning gray and dim
The outlet sits right under where your fingers freeze
We haven't got the words to settle or appease
The shadow on the paint is stretching tall and thin
While we stay caught between the places we have been
The brass is cooling down beneath the evening chill
A heavy quiet resting on the window sill
We left the sentence hanging right across the floor
With neither one of us reaching for the door
Unplug the lamp and let the amber shadows fall
We’re standing in the middle of a breaking wall
The cord is hanging mid-air by the baseboard trim
While all the light we built is turning gray and dim
Oh, go ahead and unplug the lamp
You look away and leave the quiet choice to me
We slide the heavy fraction of our history
The metal prong is resting in my open palm
Beneath the bitter surface of a borrowed calm
The brass is cooling down beneath the evening chill
A heavy quiet resting on the window sill
We left the sentence hanging right across the floor
With neither one of us reaching for the door
Unplug the lamp and let the amber shadows fall
We’re standing in the middle of a breaking wall
The cord is hanging mid-air by the baseboard trim
While all the light we built is turning gray and dim
Oh, go ahead and unplug the lamp
No reason left to keep the filament alive
We lost the argument before we could arrive
Just let the cord swing slowly by the baseboard line
Without a trace of what was yours or mine
Unplug the lamp and let the amber shadows fall
We’re standing in the middle of a breaking wall
The cord is hanging mid-air by the baseboard trim
While all the light we built is turning gray and dim
Oh, go ahead and unplug the lamp
Just let the darkness take the room tonight
Without a single light
