[Verse 1]
I lived where the air sat still
Every thought hit hard
No one heard my name
Even I kept my heart barred
The rooms got tight at night
Like they knew my shape
I wore my quiet thin
Till it started to ache
[Pre-Chorus]
Then you came in
Like a door unlatched
You laughed once
And the dark stepped back
My chest went warm
My hands forgot to shake
For the first time
I had room to wake
[Chorus]
Too loud, too loud
You made it too loud
My quiet broke
When you came around
Too loud, too loud
I don’t mind now
You made life burn
And I want that sound
(too loud)
[Verse 2]
You had rain on your coat
And fire in your eyes
You said, "Stay here with me"
Like it saved my life
We walked through a crowd
Like we knew the way
Your shoulder hit mine
And the gray gave way
[Pre-Chorus]
Then you smiled slow
And my ghost gave in
Every dead old hour
Started breathing again
I was half a man
In a faded town
Now I hear my name
When you’re around
[Chorus]
Too loud, too loud
You made it too loud
My quiet broke
When you came around
Too loud, too loud
I don’t mind now
You made life burn
And I want that sound
(too loud)
[Bridge]
I don’t need the silence
I needed you
One small light
And the whole world moved
Say my name
And I come back new
I was lost for good
Till I found you
(found you)
[Final Chorus]
Too loud, too loud
You made it too loud
My quiet broke
When you came around
Too loud, too loud
I sing it out loud
You made life worth
The noise somehow
(too loud)
(too loud)
