[Verse 1]
Deep inside fear is a hallway
Every door got a whisper, got a name
I been walking with my eyes straight forward
But the past still pulling on my chain
Little kid me in the corner
Holding breath while the grown folks shout
Thought if I stayed small and silent
All that thunder might just blow out
Now I'm grown but the echoes follow
In the dark when the room get still
Every "what if" feel like handcuffs
Every heartbeat, fight or flight drill
[Chorus]
In the chamber of hidden wounds
Where the memories live, where the pain once bloomed
Old hurts sealed like fossils in stone
Touch them gently, He don't leave you alone
Fear is a wound afraid to be touched
But God's love leans in, says, "You been enough"
In the chamber of hidden wounds
We gon' lay them down and watch Him make room
[Verse 2]
I been covering my scars with a smile
Jokes sharp like a fence, keep 'em out
But the laughter never hits the center
Just circles all the doubt, all the doubt
I was scared if I opened that closet
Everything would avalanche, bury me quick
But the Spirit kept knockin' on the panels
"Let Me in, I'ma sit with your sick"
So I cracked one box in the corner
Pulled a memory out, hands shook
Saw my tears on that old, torn letter
Felt His hand where the world once looked
[Chorus]
In the chamber of hidden wounds
Where the memories live, where the pain once bloomed
Old hurts sealed like fossils in stone
Touch them gently, He don't leave you alone
Fear is a wound afraid to be touched
But God's love leans in, says, "You been enough"
In the chamber of hidden wounds
We gon' lay them down and watch Him make room
[Bridge]
Touch it gentle
(yeah) touch it slow
What you thought would break you
Is the place His mercy grows
Touch it gentle
Bring it to the throne
Every buried story
He can carve into a home
[Chorus]
In the chamber of hidden wounds
Where the memories live, where the pain once bloomed
Old hurts sealed like fossils in stone
Touch them gently, He don't leave you alone
Fear is a wound afraid to be touched
But God's love leans in, says, "You been enough"
In the chamber of hidden wounds
We gon' lay them down and watch Him make room
