[Intro] My face greets the day A loose hinge in the hall Part of me wants to stay Part of me lets it all fall [Verse 1] Morning wears my face Then someone else gets up In the glass, I watch A stranger sip my blood One voice says be kind One voice says run now One voice pulls the lock One voice takes the crown [Pre-Chorus] I can feel the split Like thunder in my teeth Every door inside Keeps swinging in the heat [Chorus] Battle in the hallway Battle in my head One name falls silent Another wakes instead All that I do, it starts from a good place But how it lands, that changes my whole face I lose the throne Then lose it again Do you know this feeling too? [Verse 2] Noon comes sharp and pale I change without a sign A calmer set of hands A colder set of eyes One laughs at the pain One kneels in the dust One wants to forgive One wants to turn to rust [Pre-Chorus] I can hear them trade The keys behind my ribs When I think it's done Something else begins [Chorus] Battle in the hallway Battle in my head One name falls silent Another wakes instead All that I do, it starts from a good place But how it lands, that changes my whole face I lose the throne Then lose it again Do you know this feeling too? [Bridge] Night leans on the frame And calls me by new names I say I know myself Then I become the change No victor in the dark No verdict on the flame Just a shifting room With nobody to blame [Final Chorus] Battle in the hallway Battle in my head One name falls silent Another wakes instead All that I do, it starts from a good place But how it lands, that changes my whole face Battle in the hallway Battle in my head You know this feeling too.
