The Elderstrange

Verse 1 Ceiling fan talks in a quiet code Spinning like it knows what I don’t Window cracked to let the night breathe in Streetlight hum against my skin Ash in a paper constellation Static in the ventilation Every thought just drifts and rearranges I don’t feel young — I feel ancient ⸻ Pre-Chorus Everybody swears they’ve got a plan But nobody says what happens when The room gets bigger than it was And smaller at the same time ⸻ Chorus Hello, Elderstrange Wrap me up in the rearrange Make the walls look far away Make the noise behave Hello, Elderstrange Hold me in the in-between If I fade out, don’t explain Just tell me I’m not alone again ⸻ Verse 2 Text goes silent, heartbeat loud Crowded house but not a sound Laughs through doors I don’t unlock Hands on air, afraid to knock Clouds roll in behind my eyes Sweet relief in thin disguise Everything feels slow and bright Like disappearing’s half a right ⸻ Pre-Chorus Everybody swears they’re okay Like it’s just another day But the mirror won’t stay still And neither will my name ⸻ Chorus Hello, Elderstrange Wrap me up in the rearrange Make the walls look far away Make the noise behave Hello, Elderstrange Hold me in the in-between If I fade out, don’t explain Just tell me I’m not alone again ⸻ Bridge (Droney / Expansive) Slow motion satellites Orbit my doubt tonight Soft green halo glow I don’t wanna go I don’t wanna go Back to the echo (Instrumental swell) ⸻ Final Chorus (More Lift, Slight Hope) Hello, Elderstrange Pull me through the haze If I drift too far away Keep my outline in the frame Hello, Elderstrange Stay with me till morning rain If I wake up feeling strange Tell me I’m still the same (Droney guitar loop fades) ⸻ Instrumental Reprise Hello, Elderstrange Hello, Elderstrange
