Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I kept your weight in my coat
For way too many winters
A pocket full of old receipts
And broken little splinters
I learned to walk with bent-up knees
Like that was just my shape
But every bruise I packed away
Kept asking me to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Then I saw the morning line
On the edge of my window
Thin as a thread
But enough to follow
I let my hand unclench
I let the cold air in
[Chorus]
I’m stepping out
I’m stepping out
I’m leaving it behind
I’m stepping out
I’m stepping out
To the other side
(hold the door)
(hold the door)
[Verse 2]
The hallway used to swallow me
Each step a stone I carried
My name would shake inside my throat
My heart felt half-buried
But I found a crack in the floor
A little seam of gold
And every quiet thing I feared
Started letting go
[Pre-Chorus]
Then I saw the morning line
On the edge of my window
Thin as a thread
But enough to follow
I let my hand unclench
I let the cold air in
[Chorus]
I’m stepping out
I’m stepping out
I’m leaving it behind
I’m stepping out
I’m stepping out
To the other side
(hold the door)
(hold the door)
[Bridge]
If I still shake, let me shake
If I still break, let me mend
I do not owe the dark my life
I do not live there anymore
One more breath
One more step
I can hear it now
At the end of this tunnel
Something brighter calling out
[Chorus]
I’m stepping out
I’m stepping out
I’m leaving it behind
I’m stepping out
I’m stepping out
To the other side
(hold the door)
(hold the door)
