[Verse 1 – male lead, soft and close, minimal drums] Woke up with the same old numbers Calling from a buried phone Same temptations, different morning Same old voice that sounds like homeBut the line feels dead and distant Just a hum and broken tone All the things that used to own me Ring and ring, but no one’s home [Pre-Chorus – female lead, light harmonies, beat builds slightly] I went under, came up breathing Like the city changed its face Same streets, different kind of feeling Like I don’t belong to that place [Chorus – female lead strong, male low double, guitars swell] I’m dead to what killed me I don’t hear it like before All the chains that used to fit me Don’t reach around me anymore I’m alive in a new light With the old world at my door Let it knock until it’s quiet I’m not going back no more [Verse 2 – female lead, mellow groove, subtle guitar] I still see the same old faces Hear the stories, feel the pull But the taste is faint and empty What was sweet just feels so dullI’m not stronger, I’m just spoken By a better, louder name What once felt like all I lived for Can’t survive inside this flame [Chorus – both, layered, bigger drums and guitars] I’m dead to what killed me I don’t hear it like before All the chains that used to fit me Don’t reach around me anymore I’m alive in a new light With the old world at my door Let it knock until it’s quiet I’m not going back no more [Chorus – both, layered, bigger drums and guitars] I’m dead to what killed me I don’t hear it like before All the chains that used to fit me Don’t reach around me anymore I’m alive in a new light With the old world at my door Let it knock until it’s quiet I’m not going back no more
