“Conduit” (Capaldi Style)

Verse 1

I walk in and I feel it all

Every crack behind your smile

Like your heartbreak’s in my blood

And it stays there for a while

I try laughing like I’m fine

Like it doesn’t get to me

But I’m holding all your weight

And it’s pulling me too deep

Pre-Chorus

I don’t know where I end anymore

Every feeling isn’t mine

Chorus

I’m a conduit, I can’t turn it off

Every broken heart just hits me twice as hard

I give it all away ‘til I’ve got nothing left to lose

Everybody’s hurting… but nobody feels me too

Verse 2

I go home and shut the door

But it follows me inside

Even silence isn’t safe

There’s no place I get to hide

I would give it all away

Just to breathe for one night

But if I lose this part of me

Would I lose my whole life?

Pre-Chorus

I don’t know who I am anymore

When I’m carrying everyone

Chorus

I’m a conduit, I can’t turn it off

Every broken heart just hits me twice as hard

I give it all away ‘til I’ve got nothing left to lose

Everybody’s hurting… but nobody feels me too

Bridge (soft → explosive)

If I could shut it down, would I disappear?

Am I only love or just built from fear?

I hate this weight, but it’s all I’ve known

If I let it go… am I still my own?

Final Chorus (bigger)

I’m a conduit, I can’t turn it off

Carrying a world that was never mine to hold

I give it all away ‘til I fade into the blue

Everybody’s hurting… but nobody feels me too
