The Room Behind the Room (Jazzy version)

[Verse 1] I woke with a key in my palm And dust on the bedroom floor The mirror kept one eye open Like it knew what I came here for [Pre-Chorus] You said, “Don’t turn the handle” But your voice was on the other side I counted every crack in the plaster To keep from asking why [Chorus] If I disappear, don’t call my name I’m learning how to leave this frame There’s a room behind the room I knew And someone there is wearing you [Verse 2] The clock lost seven minutes Then gave them back in blue A photograph bent at the corners Still held a place for two [Pre-Chorus] I pressed my ear to the silence Felt a pulse beneath the wall Every promise I had buried Started climbing through the hall [Chorus] If I disappear, don’t call my name I’m learning how to leave this frame There’s a room behind the room I knew And someone there is wearing you [Bridge] I won’t mistake the wound for a doorway I won’t let the dark decide If the glass gives way beneath me I’ll meet myself on the other side [Final Chorus] When I disappear, remember this: I chose the edge, I chose the risk The room behind the room is gone I turn the handle and walk on [Outro] Walk on Walk on
