Make Room

[Verse 1]
I wake with the ceiling pressing down
Count the cracks like roads out of town
This body feels borrowed, heavy and tight
But something in me keeps asking for light
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need to vanish to be free
I need one clear breath inside of me
[Chorus]
Make room, make room
For the part of me that still can move
Past the walls, past the weight
Past the verdict my tired mind creates
Make room, make room
I am more than what this frame can prove
If I bend, I won't break
I'll find a door in the shape of this ache
[Verse 2]
The mirror reduces a lifetime to skin
A list of small failures I carry within
But under the noise, beneath every scar
There is a pulse that remembers we are
[Bridge]
Stay with me through the narrow hour
Let the locked-up heart recover power
No grand escape, no perfect sign
Just one more breath, then one more line
[Final Chorus]
Make room, make room
For the part of me that still can move
Past the walls, past the weight
Past the verdict my tired mind creates
Make room, make room
I am more than what this frame can prove
If I bend, I won't break
I'll find a door in the shape of this ache
[Outro]
One clear breath inside of me
One small room where I can be
