[Intro] I built a room against the rain. [rest] Rain came anyway. [Verse 1] I stitched the ceiling to the sky, held every corner like a lie. Kept my hands against the seams— still the weather found its way into the dream. [Layer] [Verse 2] Move the walls. Rename the street. Hide the cracks beneath your feet. Turn the whole world inside out— water never asks what doubt was built about. [Chorus] The water knows… the water knows… what we hold was made to go. Nothing stays the way we planned. Still the rain keeps finding hands. [Break] [Verse 3] Every shelter learns the storm. Every shape forgets its form. Every heart that locks the door finds one morning— it can’t live that closed anymore. [rest] Maybe breaking wasn’t proof that we failed to build the roof. Maybe some things have to pour through the places we kept guarded— just to show us what they’re for. [Climax] [Final Chorus] The water knows… the water knows… what we lose still leaves us whole. Nothing stays. Nothing should. Rain keeps falling— life still grows where water stood. [Outro] I built a room against the rain. [long rest] Now I leave the window open. [voice dissolves] The water knows. [End]
