Step Toward The Light

[Verse 1]
I map every danger in the back of my head
Pin each little warning above my bed
Sadness folds laundry, frustration pays rent
Fear keeps a chair by the window again

I read every signal, I circle each doubt
Build a locked hallway and call it a route
But somewhere beneath all the noise I can feel
A door with a handle, a world that's still real

[Pre-Chorus]
All these alarms have a voice
But they don't get to make the choice

[Chorus]
Move it, move it, let the daylight through
The walls in my mind aren't telling the truth
I thought I was trapped in the shape of the night
But the sun was waiting on the other side
Move it, move it, make a little room
The fear gets smaller when I face the room
I don't need to fix every scar tonight
I just need to step toward the light

[Verse 2]
I carry old failures in jars on a shelf
Label them proof that I can't trust myself
Frustration knocks hard with a fist made of stone
Sadness says, stay here, at least you're alone

Then morning puts gold on the chipped kitchen tile
A train leaves the station, I wait for a while
The ache is still with me, but less like a chain
More like a cloud that can open again

[Pre-Chorus]
All these alarms have a voice
But they don't get to make the choice

[Chorus]
Move it, move it, let the daylight through
The walls in my mind aren't telling the truth
I thought I was trapped in the shape of the night
But the sun was waiting on the other side
Move it, move it, make a little room
The fear gets smaller when I face the room
I don't need to fix every scar tonight
I just need to step toward the light

[Bridge]
I can hear the doubt without handing it the keys
I can feel the weight and still bend my knees
One breath, one step, one hand on the frame
The path was covered, but it never changed

[Final Chorus]
Move it, move it, let the daylight through
The walls in my mind aren't telling the truth
I thought I was trapped in the shape of the night
But the sun was waiting on the other side
Move it, move it, make a little room
The fear gets smaller when I face the room
I don't need to fix every scar tonight
I just need to step toward the light

[Outro]
A little room
A little light
I take the step
And morning arrives
