Intro

The room got smaller when the ceiling fan turned

I counted every breath, watched the shadows burn

Something in the hallway knew my name

I said, “Who are you?” It answered just the same

Verse 1

I used to sleep with the window cracked

Now every little sound brings the panic back

Footsteps in the pipes, three knocks in the wall

A voice says, “Come outside,” but I don’t move at all

My thoughts run laps, leave sparks on the floor

I lose whole hours, then I lose one more

I wrote down every fear in a notebook black

Read it in the morning, couldn’t take it back

Pre-Chorus

I tell myself, “These thoughts aren’t commands”

Put both feet down, feel the cold tile land
