[Intro]
Night bus lights…
through the curtains…

---

[Verse 1]
Your shoes
by the radiator

Takeout boxes
stacked for days

We made playlists
for the kitchen

Like that could make
the feeling stay

Cheap wine
on the fire escape

Cold air
but we stayed awake

Talking like
we had somewhere to go

Without ever knowing

---

[Pre-Chorus]
Some things feel real
because they disappear

---

[Chorus]
Love on rental

Half-packed hearts
and borrowed bedrooms

Trying to build
something stable

On temporary ground

Love on rental

---

[Verse 2]
Your laugh
through the bathroom door

Morning trains
at half past four

Plants leaning
toward the window light

Like they wanted
something more than this life

We kept saying
“maybe next year”

Like time itself
would volunteer

To make us stronger
than we were

---

[Pre-Chorus]
But the city moves too fast
for careful love

---

[Chorus]
Love on rental

Nothing broken
just unstable

Two people trying
to outlast motion

While everything changed

Love on rental

---

[Bridge – stripped]
Nobody left angry…

We just slowly stopped arriving…

---

[Final Chorus – wider]
Love on rental

Neon shadows
on the ceiling

Every moment
felt important

Till it drifted
out of reach

Love on rental

---

[Outro]
…still paying for it…
