VERSE I can't unknow what I now know it can't be softened I won't try Two convictions share the same space causing a fracture deep inside I used to quiet this kind of tension call it doubt and push on through but now the cracks are widening and I can't deny what's true CHORUS If I start pulling at the framework don't grab my hands to make it safe I'm not looking for permission I'm just asking you to stay Stand near while it shifts beneath me Let it move Let it sound Don't rush to quiet the crashing Remain while it comes down VERSE I don't see chaos in your crumbling I see someone refusing to split in two You're rebuilding yourself from the scaffold of someone who once was you You're not tearing down for spectacle You're not reaching for something new Some things stop being livable long before we admit they do CHORUS If you start pulling at the framework I won't force it back in place I won't steady what needs to topple just to keep a familiar shape If it trembles while you're standing there I won't call it wrong I'll hold this space beside you that's right where I belong VERSE 3 I live inside a structure that once fit the shape of me but the me I am becoming doesn't fit here easily All that I held as canon the facts that shaped my whole fall out of step with what I see when looking out my door PAUSE the me I know is crumbling Fixed as the shape of who I was before BRIDGE The blueprint I once trusted can't carry all that I've come to be The lines I'd drawn around myself don't hold the shape of me FINAL CHORUS When what I stand on changes the former frame won't do What shifts beneath the surface unmakes what once was true OUTRO Let it crumble Let it crash Hold steady while it comes down Let it crumble Hold Steady Let it crash down
