Lyrics

[Intro]
[whispered vocals]
Someone left
All the TVs on
In my head

[Verse 1]
Floorboards breathe
Shadows crawl across the sink
Fridge hum turns to a choir
Arguing in the silverware drawer

I sip cold coffee
It tastes like last winter’s fear
Curtain moves
But the window never opened here

[Chorus]
Welcome to the house with all the doors open
Every room talking at the same time
I walk down a hallway that keeps unfolding
Trying to find one voice that’s mine

[Verse 2]
Laughter in the bathroom tiles
Crying in the rusted drain
Lightbulb flickers like a heartbeat
Speeding up on my good days

Mirror shifts
Shows a stranger wearing my jaw
His smile hangs too heavy
Teeth buzzing with distant applause

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[cello solo][crescendo]
[low vocal register]
Hands over my ears
Still hear the floor sing
Walls lean close
Asking the same question

Are you the guest
Or the haunting?

I count my breaths
Like worn-out prayer beads
One-two
One-two
Til the ceiling finally loosens its grip

[Chorus]
