The Room Has a Key

[Verse 1]
When I close the door, the ceiling turns wide
A red paper moon rolls under the tide
I meet every version I buried awake
They hand me the pieces I thought I should break

[Pre-Chorus]
No judge in the hallway
No lock on the chest
The impossible calls me
And gives me a rest

[Chorus]
Let me fall through the floor
Let the lost doors swing
I can wake with a wound
That remembers to sing
If the dark is a room
Then the room has a key
Every dream makes a country
That carries me

[Verse 2]
I ride on a staircase that grows as I climb
Past rooms full of birthdays I left behind
A child with my eyes draws a map on my sleeve
Says, take what you need, you don't have to believe

[Pre-Chorus]
The river runs backward
The old names dissolve
My hands stop defending
What sleep can resolve

[Chorus]
Let me fall through the floor
Let the lost doors swing
I can wake with a wound
That remembers to sing
If the dark is a room
Then the room has a key
Every dream makes a country
That carries me

[Bridge]
I was not broken, only braced
I was not empty, only faced
With every fear I couldn't name
Until the night rebuilt my frame

[Breakdown]
Open the gate
Undo the chain
Give me the storm
Give me the rain
I come back changed
I come back clear
The life I was hiding
Is waiting here

[Final Chorus]
Let me fall through the floor
Let the lost doors swing
I can wake with a wound
That remembers to sing
If the dark is a room
Then the room has a key
Every dream makes a country
That carries me

[Outro]
When morning arrives, I keep what it gave
A door in my breathing, a heart I can save
