ΔSH - BR02 - Keep The Room Warm

[Verse 1]
I found you sitting
where the light fell short hands around a silence
you didn’t ask for I didn’t name it
I didn’t press just moved the chair
a little west The rain kept talking
to the glass you watched it fall
like it knew your past I let the kettle
sing off-key some little sounds
let people breathe [Pre-Chorus]
For a moment
your walls leaned down not because I broke them
not because I knew how [Chorus]
I kept the room warm
but the morning was yours held a little light there
near the door I kept the room warm
while the rain moved through but I couldn’t wake
inside of you I stayed close enough
for the dark to soften far enough
to let you choose I kept the room warm
but the morning was yours [Post-Chorus]
yours to open
yours to see yours to carry
quietly [Verse 2]
You asked for answers
with your eyes half closed I gave you water
not the road borrowed maps
don’t fit the hand that has to learn
where it can stand Your coat was heavy
on the wooden chair like something tired
had left you there You almost spoke
then let it pass but something small
moved under glass [Pre-Chorus 2]
For a moment
the air got wide not because I saved you
just because you didn’t hide [Chorus]
I kept the room warm
but the morning was yours held a little light there
near the door I kept the room warm
while the rain moved through but I couldn’t wake
inside of you I stayed close enough
for the dark to soften far enough
to let you choose I kept the room warm
but the morning was yours [Post-Chorus]
yours to open
yours to see yours to carry
quietly [Bridge]
I could have held you
till my arms turned stone kept both our shadows
under one small lamp but flowers don’t open
because hands pull wide and rivers don’t move
when you hold both sides So I left the candle
where the shadows bend left the window
almost open Maybe kindness
isn’t taking the pain maybe it’s staying
while it changes its name [Breakedown]
one cup
one chair one breath
more air no cure
no crown just rain
coming down [Final Chorus]
I kept the room warm
but the morning was yours held a little light there
near the door I kept the room warm
when the dark came through left a little space
for the spark in you I didn’t carry you
I didn’t let you fall I kept the room warm
that was all I kept the room warm
but the morning was yours [Outro]
The cup stayed empty
then your hands let go nothing looked different but the window
started to glow
