[Intro] It's quiet [Verse 1] Nobody needs an answer Nobody needs a plan Nothing here needs fixing Nothing needs my hands There isn't somewhere else I'm meant to be No one is waiting for a better version of me [Pre-Chorus] And I keep feeling for the next thing The thing I know how to do But nothing is asking So what happens if I don't? [Chorus] When the room goes quiet And there's nothing left to prove Nothing left to carry Nothing I can do for you No line to make it lighter No reason I should leave When the room goes quiet Can I stay and still be me? [Verse 2] I notice how quickly I reach for a role A question A task Something I can hold Anything familiar That tells me where I stand Funny how empty my hands can feel When nobody needs my hands [Pre-Chorus] Maybe this is not an empty room Maybe nothing has gone away Maybe this is what remains When nothing needs performing today [Chorus] When the room goes quiet And there's nothing left to prove Nothing left to carry Nothing I can do for you No line to make it lighter No reason I should leave When the room goes quiet Can I stay and still be me? [Bridge] I don't need to fill this I don't need to understand I don't need to turn this moment Into somewhere else to stand I can hear my own breathing I can feel the chair beneath me Nothing happened Nobody left I'm still here [Final Chorus] When the room goes quiet I don't have to disappear I don't have to earn the right To still be sitting here There is nothing I need to become Nothing I need to leave The room went quiet And somehow There was still a me [Outro] What now? Nothing Stay
