Good to be Home

(Verse 1)

Quiet walls breathe like old lungs

Floorboards speak in softened tongues

Familiar shadows, folded light

Everything’s still, but not quite right

(Verse 2)

Air hangs low like tired clouds

Echoes gather without a sound

All my ghosts sit down with me

No need to hide what I can’t be

(Chorus)

No alarms, no rushing

No clock that needs my bones

The weight is slowly lifting

I’m not lost

I’m just… home

(Verse 3)

Footsteps slow across the grain

Nothing left here to explain

The world outside still grinds its gears

But it can’t follow me in here

(Bridge)

If peace is only borrowed

Then let me borrow more

Tonight I close the windows

And I don’t watch the door

(Chorus – reprise)

No alarms, no running

No echoes in my bones

The weight is slowly lifting

I’m not lost

I’m just… home
