[Intro]
Cupid came in quiet
No celebration
No explosion
Just a shift in gravity and sensation
[Verse
My life cracked gently
Without a sound
Like a glass too full
About to break down
We loved what was real
We loved unbound
But the world built walls we couldn’t break down
Every smile learned how to bend and bend
Every step with a heart off-balance again
When love is honest
It never pretends
It falls from the truth
Not from the end
[Chorus]
It was soft
Soft as a secret
Changing the weight of the room when you breathed in
Nothing loud
Nothing you’d believe in
Till I looked at you and everything was different
You didn’t crash through
You just slipped in
Quiet Cupid
Crooked halo
Crooked grin
No firework sky
Just a slow spin
And suddenly my ordinary life didn’t fit skin
[Verse 2]
We brewed black coffee
Let it run cold
Argued in circles ’bout getting old
Shared one pillow
Two phones on hold
Making brave plans we were scared to unfold
Your coat on my chair
Your keys by the sink
All of your chaos stacked up with my things
I learned how your silence could make my heart sink
And how saying nothing could still make it ring
[Chorus]
It was soft
Soft as a secret
Changing the weight of the room when you breathed in
Nothing loud
Nothing you’d believe in
Till I looked at you and everything was different
You didn’t crash through
You just slipped in
Quiet Cupid
Crooked halo
Crooked grin
No firework sky
Just a slow spin
And suddenly my ordinary life didn’t fit skin
[Bridge]
Maybe the heartbreak started from day one
Hidden in how you laughed at the sun
Every forever is timed from the first touch
Maybe we both knew we were asking too much
I still feel you shifting the air when it’s late
Still wake up reaching across the space
Guess some arrivals are also escapes
You walked in gentle
But you left the loudest trace
[Chorus]
It was soft
Soft as a secret
Changing the weight of the room when you breathed in
Nothing loud
Nothing I believed in
Till I looked at you and everything was different
You didn’t crash through
You just slipped in
Quiet Cupid
Crooked halo
Crooked grin
No firework sky
Just this slow spin
Where loving you still doesn’t fit my skin
