[Intro: pulsing synth, steady build] [Verse 1: low, spoken-sung, internal voice] I built a place to hide in Called it home and shut the door Got so comfortable complaining Forgot what the comfort's for The noise became the normal The weight became the air Breathing in the bitter Like it was always there [Chorus: opens up, driving, warm] Let it go Let them go Let me go There's a roof and there's a door And there are hands that reach for mine And that's more That's more [Verse 2: same delivery, turning inward] I know the mold they carved I know I don't fit in The hands the voice the posture Of the man I've never been Five rooms on a quiet street Still choking on the noise Either own the shape I am Or lose it to the void [Chorus] Let it go Let them go Let me go There's a roof and there's a door And there are hands that reach for mine And that's more That's more [Bridge: full production, voice rises, the inventory] Count it up Not the losses Count what's here Four walls and a window Breath that fogs the mirror Shoes by the door That aren't just mine A laugh down the hall A light left on That's not nothing That's everything That's all [Chorus: full synth layers] Let it go Let them go Let me go There's a roof and there's a door And there are hands that reach for mine And that's more That's more [Outro: fading, spoken, settling] We're alright We're alright Just look around We're alright We're alright [Fade: synth pulse continues, 8 bars, slow decay]
