[Intro]
Dimmed echoes, shadows in my mind
A quiet whisper telling me to find
The strength to walk through that old door
A room I closed forevermore
[Verse 1]
There’s a room in my head
That I don’t go into anymore
Boxes underneath the bed
And a name scratched into the door
I used to leave the hallway light
On in case I changed my mind
Funny how you can stay somewhere
Long after you’ve said goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
And maybe I’m not supposed to
Keep every version of me
Maybe some doors only close
So you can finally leave
[Chorus]
So I’m leaving the lights on
But I’m not coming home
I’m taking all the pieces
That I thought I’d outgrown
And if I get scared
I’ll remember tonight
I don’t need a reason
To step into my life
I’m leaving the lights on
Let them shine through the dark
I spent too many years
Waiting to know who I was
Now I’m opening every window
Letting the whole world in
If this is where it starts
Then let it begin
[Bridge]
Every shadow fading, new dawn on the way
A fearless heart awakening, breaking free today
No more locked doors in my head
Just open skies ahead
[Outro]
The lights are on in my soul
Ready to be whole
This journey’s just begun
Bring on the morning sun
