All the rooms we never open

Текст песни:

[Intro]
long hallway, half-lit
shoes scrape, old wood

[Verse 1]
you lean against the doorframe
quiet, head low
faded plaid, last winter's coat
we don’t say much
steam on glass,
names drawn in the dust

don’t ask what I felt then
could choke on the words (echoed, barely sung)

[Pre-chorus]
you laugh, it falls apart
under the heavy ceiling

[Chorus]
all the rooms we never open (echo, repeat: open)
memories lean on the wall
your shadow blends with mine
gone before we ever called

[Post-chorus]
hold breath, count to ten
something always missing

[Verse 2]
light bends, washing the frame
cigarette on the sill
you say you’ll call back in May
I nod, let the silence fill

your scent, old tobacco, snow
hat pulled down, won’t let go

[Pre-chorus]
fake a smile, keep it thin
waiting for the end to begin

[Chorus]
all the rooms we never open (echo, repeat: open)
shoes left by the stair
you fade down the winding rail
still I find you there

[Post-chorus]
hold breath, count to ten
quiet as the ceiling

[Solo]
[guitar echoes, low synth drone, footsteps receding]

[Bridge]
you say: nothing stays, not here
I breathe it in, tastes just like fear
walls remember, we pretend
doors shut easy in the end

[Chorus]
all the rooms we never open (echo, repeat: open)
voices haunt the hall
every footstep moving on
I still hear it all

[Outro]
long hallway, half-lit
name lost, I sit
