[spoken-word half spok half sing feel really slowly talk , first-person] [Intro โ warm, like opening a door that's been closed for years] I've been looking for you In all the wrong places Trying to outrun you Trying to fix you Trying to silence you But today... Today I am just opening the door And asking you to come home [Verse 1] You don't have to get sick To get my attention anymore You don't have to scream through my body To make me stop and listen You don't have to create a crisis To prove that you exist You don't have to fall apart For me to finally show up I am showing up now Not because everything collapsed But because I choose to Because you deserve that [Mantra x3] Come home to me. I am here. I am not leaving Come home to me. I am here. I am not leaving Come home to me... I am here... I am not leaving [Verse 2] I know you learned That love had to be earned That visibility had to be fought for That needing things was dangerous I know you built walls Not because you were cold But because you were so warm And nobody came But I am coming now I am walking through every wall Every defense, every strategy Every way you learned to survive without me I see all of it And I am not afraid And I am not leaving Come home [Mantra x3] Come home to me. I am here. I am not leaving Come home to me. I am here. I am not leaving Come home to me... I am here... I am not leaving [Bridge โ like two people finally finding each other] You spent so long Making yourself small enough To fit into spaces That were never meant for you You don't have to be small anymore There is a place here That is exactly your size Exactly your shape Exactly your wonderful, complicated, beautiful self Come home Just come home I have been waiting And I have nowhere else to be [Final Mantra x3 โ like a lullaby, the warmest fade] Come home to me. I am here. I am not leaving Come home to me. I am here. I am not leaving Come home to me... I am here... I am not leaving
