Deep Breath, Let It Go

[Verse 1]
Alarm on my phone
Startled awake again
Same ceiling
Same crack
Same weight on my chest
Shoes by the door
Keys on the kitchen chair
Coffee going cold
While I just stand and stare
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little thought
Turns into a tidal wave
But I'm so tired of running
From things I can't even name
[Chorus]
I just want to be able to breathe
Take a deep breath
Relax
No worries
No worries
I just want to be able to breathe
Take a deep breath
Relax
Let it go
Let it go from me
[Verse 2]
News on the screen
Another headline storm
Heart skipping beats
Like a scratched-up song
Friends say I'm fine
But they don’t hear the roar
Crowd in my head
Pushing me to the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little doubt
Echoes like a marching band
But I'm so done pretending
That this is all I am
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
In through the nose
Hold it in slow
Count to four
To four
Out through the fear
Till it disappears
Leave it on the floor
The floor
[crescendo]
Hands in the air
Scream if you feel it too (feel it too)
We’re still here
That means we made it through
[Chorus]

Verses stay tight and dry, vocal right up front; chorus explodes with wide distorted layers, octave doubles, and gang shouts on the hook. Short reverb tail on snare, bright overheads, and a brief melodic guitar break before the final chorus. Male vocals, earnest but defiant., deep
