[Intro] [Instrumental — slow witch house pulse, reverb-drenched synth, heavy atmosphere] [Verse 1] The path to the shed is long tonight The burden is heavy and the mud holds tight I don't know what's inside it anymore I only know it has to reach that door My arms ache with the weight of it My back has learned the shape of it I've carried it so long I can't recall What I was carrying before it all [Pre-Chorus] [Vocals buried in reverb, barely above a whisper] Just a little further Just a little further now The shed is waiting The shed is always waiting [Chorus] [Slow and hypnotic] Leave it in the shed Leave it in the dark Leave it with the other things You couldn't bear to part with The door will close behind it The lock will hold it in Leave it in the shed And don't come back again [Verse 2] The wood is old and wet with years of rain The hinges groan familiar like a name I've been here before though I can't say when I always find my way back here again The burden shifts, I almost lose my grip Something moves inside it as I slip I set it down just short of where I meant And wonder what it cost and what it spent [Pre-Chorus] Just a little further Just a little further now The shed is waiting The shed is always waiting [Chorus] Leave it in the shed Leave it in the dark Leave it with the other things You couldn't bear to part with The door will close behind it The lock will hold it in Leave it in the shed And don't come back again [Bridge] [Music slows to near silence, single synth pulse] I open the door Inside are all the others All the things I brought before I don't remember bringing them But there they are I set mine down among them It fits perfectly As if the space was always Meant for it [Final Chorus — slower, heavier] Leave it in the shed Leave it in the dark Leave it with the things You've carried since the start The door will close behind you The lock will hold it in Leave it in the shed Just leave it [Outro] [Synth pulse slows, reverb stretches to silence] The path back looks different Than the path here did [Single note fades] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Witch House meditation on the literal and the strange — a figure carrying a heavy, unnamed burden through mud and dark to an old shed at the end of a long path. The shed is always there. She have been here often before, though she can't say when. Inside are all the other things she has brought over the years, perfectly arranged, waiting. The burden fits the empty space exactly. What the burden is, what the shed means, why the path back looks different — none of it is explained. The Witch House atmosphere does the work the words leave undone. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Bingo Board — 2026 [A1] GoGo × Shame [B1] Klezmer × Thirst [C1] Mongolian Throat Singing × Entropy [D1] Instrumental Only × Aerobics [E1] Native American Flute × Democracy [F1] Hopera × Mushroom / Fungi [A2] Rap × Nature [B2] Delta Blues × Dark Ages [C2] Grand Country × Uplifting [D2] Motown × Awakening [E2] Surf Rock × Surrealism [F2] Accordion × Train Hopping [A3] Chap Hop × Muscle Flex [B3] Witch House × Shed Your Burden [C3] Ska × Conflict [D3] Cyberpunk × Transmittable [E3] Groove Metal × Gnomes [F3] Wonky × Ice Cream [A4] Yacht Rock × Love [B4] Screamo × Bubblegum [C4] Fado Phonk × Africa Language [D4] Electronic Dance × 42 [E4] R&B Funk × Banana Split [F4] Skweee × Dating [A5] Lo-fi Indie Pop × Cheating Death [B5] Krautgaze Drone Rock × Heartbreak [C5] Balkan Folk × Transformation [D5] NeoFolk × Hardship [E5] Classical Music × Bird [F5] Alternative Rock × Courage [A6] Harpsichord Symphonic Metal × Faith [B6] Vocal Only / Acapella × Hope [C6] Ballad × Seduction [D6] Psychedelic Newgrass × Philosophy [E6] Yodeling × High Fantasy [F6] Punkrock × Awkward Fathers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ © 2026 Ande Records Lyrics by Ande All rights reserved. https://ande-records.se/
