The Air in My Room

[Verse 1] The curtains stay closed as morning fades, I breathe in a world no one knows. The glow of my phone feels like my only friend, Even smiley emojis sting now. [Verse 2] Voices outside echo from afar, The door in my heart has rusted shut. The sun sets while I lie on my bed, Dream and reality blur together. [Pre-Chorus] The ticking clock stabs my heart, “Again today,” echoes inside me. The girl in the mirror whispers, “You don’t have to try anymore.” [Chorus] Even if the world ends in this room, I probably wouldn’t even know. Even if my tears dry and my heart stops, My dreams still call out to me. [Verse 3] The convenience store lights brighten the night, The sound of laughter pricks a little. The wind outside calls my name, Yet my feet won’t leave the floor. [Verse 4] The smell of cold ramen still lingers, My tears have mixed into the cup. My timeline is full of someone else’s spring, But I’m still stuck in winter. [Bridge 1] If someone knocked on my door, Could the flower in this wall bloom? If I found a little courage, Could I step into the light? [Verse 5] An old song plays on the radio, The lyrics pierce my heart so deep. A voice says, “You’re not alone,” But my tears won’t stop falling. [Chorus 2] Even if the world stops in this room, I’m still breathing here. Even if I can’t smile, that’s okay, Bit by bit, I’ll try to live. [Verse 6] The sounds outside feel softer now, My loneliness fades just a bit. If today’s better than yesterday, Then maybe that’s enough for me. [Bridge 2 – Instrumental] Light slips through my fingers, I breathe again, coming back to life. [Verse 7] I write dreams in an old notebook, Tears blur across the lines. Before it fades, I want to leave it A letter to my tomorrow self. [Final Chorus] Even when morning comes in this room, I think I could smile a little. Even with scars, that’s who I am, I’m alive and that’s enough. [Outro] Through a slit in the curtain, light spills, As if saying, “Good morning.” A new breeze brushes my face, And my world moves just a little.
