Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Sitting in the in‑between Phone face down on the bed Every feeling on the ceiling Nowhere soft to rest my head Quiet tastes like medicine Burning going down Every word I never said Still shouting in this town [Chorus] I was never too much Just too much for small rooms Heart like a flood They only brought small spoons I was never too loud They just called it too soon I was never too much Just too much for small rooms (yeah) [Verse 2] Thought I had to fold myself Crease my laugh Shrink my glow Learned to take up little space So they’d have a place to go Sat across from empty eyes Mistook hunger there for love Blamed the hurricane inside On the ceiling Not the roof [Chorus] I was never too much Just too much for small rooms Heart like a flood They only brought small spoons I was never too loud They just called it too soon I was never too much Just too much for small rooms [Bridge] If you can’t hold all this rain That don’t mean I should drought If you can’t stand in my storm I’ll stop letting you drown me out (hey) If you can’t meet me here Full force Full color Full truth I’ll save this overflow For someone built for the proof [Chorus] I was never too much Just too much for small rooms Heart like a flood They only brought small spoons I’m not turning it down Just to fit next to you I was never too much Just in spaces that never grew I was never too much Just too much for small rooms

Intimate alt-pop ballad with female vocals, warm electric piano and airy pads. First verse almost spoken over a sparse bed, then chorus blooms with soft drums, sub bass and stacked harmonies. Subtle guitar swells in the bridge, final chorus drops to nearly a cappella on the title line before the band eases back in.
