[Intro — Female, distant, guarded] (Whispered, almost a breath) No one ever stays... Why would you be any different? [Verse 1 — Female, guarded] I got people all around me, but the room still feels so empty Learned to love the isolation, safer when it's just me Every wall I built, I built it with a reason Watched too many people leave right after the first season [Pre — Female, guarded] Don't climb it if you're gonna leave Don't knock if you don't mean to stay I've watched too many turn around The second that it gets hard, they walk away [Hook — Female, soaring, powerful] So tell me, who's gonna stay when the door slams shut? Who's gonna put in the work, not just talk tough? Everyone claims they're different, a brand new start Show me you can hold it down when I start to fall apart! [Verse 2 — Female, guarded] Even my own father had to fight to get through Knock on a door I swore I'd never open, not for him, not for you Call it what you want, but it ain't abandonment It's just easier to guard it than to let somebody in again [Pre — Female, guarded] Don't climb it if you're gonna leave Don't knock if you don't mean to stay I've watched too many turn around The second that it gets hard, they walk away [Hook — Female, soaring, powerful] So tell me, who's gonna stay when the door slams shut? Who's gonna put in the work, not just talk tough? Everyone claims they're different, a brand new start Show me you can hold it down when I start to fall apart!
