[Clarinet Solo] [Verse 1] the walls got closer overnight I woke up wrong, was I ever right? the air was cold, the light was dim my thoughts got loud, the room caved in there’s no escape, there’s no design just empty words and borrowed time no window here, no place to climb just me and thoughts I can't unwind [Pre-Chorus] the ceiling sinks with every breath I pace the corners, wait for death no door to knock, no space to scream just waiting in a shrinking dream [Chorus] air gets thick, and thoughts get loud no one hears me in this crowd every voice just fades to grey no one asks if I'm okay heartbeat stutters, lungs forget how to breathe without regret can’t remember feeling free forgot who I am supposed to be [Clarinet Solo] [Verse 2] count the tiles, trace the seams fold myself into the beams light can’t reach where I decay and clocks just melt the days away I try to leave, I try to move but there’s no space left to improve the floor is warm, the air is thin I don’t know where I end or begin [Chorus] air gets thick, and thoughts get loud no one hears me in this crowd every voice just fades to grey no one asks if I'm okay heartbeat stutters, lungs forget how to breathe without regret can’t remember feeling free forgot who I am supposed to be [Clarinet Solo] [Bridge] what if I was never whole? what if this is just my role? what if freedom was a lie— do we all just live to die? [Clarinet Solo] [Chorus] air gets thick, and thoughts get loud no one hears me in this crowd every voice just fades to grey no one asks if I'm okay heartbeat stutters, lungs forget how to breathe without regret can’t remember feeling free forgot who I am supposed to be [Outro] And now the darkness swallows me...
