Somewhere to Rest
make a song about just wanting gay cuddles and wanting to be held by a guy and also about having had gay trauma done SH and depression and wanting to be held by a guy and comforted but dont make it corny and cringy. Give it an intimate, understated emo-rap sound with mellow melodic vocals, a slow-to-midtempo beat, and sparse atmospheric production.
Lyrics
The heater’s clicking in the dark.I’m pulling up my sleeves.Tracing lines that didn't heal,underneath these layers of fleece.The weight of what they said to mestill sits heavy on my chest.I’m tired of being strong alone.I just want a place to rest.Hold me, don't say anything.Wrap your arms around my frame.Keep the bad days at the door.Forget my middle name.Hold me, just stay quiet now.I need to feel your skin.Let me be small for a while.Let the kindness in.I’m scared of how I used to cope,of the marks I left behind.A thousand ways to run awayliving in my mind.But when you pull me closer,the static starts to fade.I’m not a problem to be solved.I’m not just the mistakes I made.Hold me, don't say anything.Wrap your arms around my frame.Keep the bad days at the door.Forget my middle name.Hold me, just stay quiet now.I need to feel your skin.Let me be small for a while.Let the kindness in.No questions about the scars.No pity in your eyes.Just the steady pull of gravityand the way the evening dies.I don't need a lecture.I don't need a light.I just need to know I’m safewithin your reach tonight.Hold me, don't say anything.Wrap your arms around my frame.Keep the bad days at the door.Forget my middle name.Hold me, just stay quiet now.I need to feel your skin.Let me be small for a while.Let the kindness in.Just stay right here.Don't let go.Not yet.Not yet.
