[Verse 1] Six months strapped, sleeping sideways on the wall No up, no down, pen hanging through it all Watched the weather cross a thousand miles of blue Window full of motion, but it never made a move First morning home, kitchen tile, coffee cup Fingers let go—gravity said, “That’s enough” Ceramic hit the floor, little pieces in a ring He stood there staring like the room forgot a thing [Pre-Chorus] Take a breath, take a beat Feel the floor beneath your feet [Chorus] Down here, things stay where you expect Down here, blanket hits the floor, no sweat Down here—hold steady, let it land Down here, back inside the weight of your hands [Drop] Down, down—here we go Feet on the floor, let the whole room know Down, down—feel that ground Everything you drop comes settling down [Verse 2] Night comes back, tether gone in the dream Hatch like a coin, then a speck, then a seam Mouth open wide to the dark, no sound Wakes up gripping hard, both hands turning white now Morning comes plain, coffee steam, traffic rolls Ceiling overhead, familiar weight in his bones Says “thanks” to nobody, lets the mattress hold Small little things putting pieces back in place, slow [Pre-Chorus] Take a breath, take a beat Feel the floor beneath your feet [Chorus] Down here, things stay where you expect Down here, blanket hits the floor, no sweat Down here—hold steady, let it land Down here, back inside the weight of your hands [Drop] Down, down—here we go Feet on the floor, let the whole room know Down, down—feel that ground Everything you drop comes settling down [Bridge] No grand return, no camera, no parade Just a cup, a room, the quiet that stayed One soft “thank you,” one bed giving way A body relearning the simple things each day [Final Chorus] Down here, things stay where you expect Down here, blanket hits the floor, no sweat Down here—hold steady, let it land Down here, back inside the weight of your hands [Final Drop] Down, down—here we go Feet on the floor, let the whole room know Down, down—feel that ground Everything you drop comes settling down [Outro] Down here Feet on the floor Down here
