Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

I carried every threshold on my back for years

Sleeping in the wiring of a building that forgets

What I survived is heavier than I let myself know

Old encounters buried in the marrow of my chest

Counted all my failures like a rosary of debt

Pre-Chorus

Then the room grew tall

Then the walls gave way

Something vast and kind

Asked me not to stay afraid

Chorus

Surrender to the unknown

Let the terror turn to sanctuary

Surrender to the unknown

I am not alone

Not alone

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh

Verse 2

I mistook my bruising for the shape of who I am

Every scar a doorway I refused to walk on through

Momentum is a language that the quiet taught me slow

Now the whispers live inside me and they speak like truth

Patient as a candle burning lower than it should

Pre-Chorus

And the ceiling lifts

And the fear goes soft

Something old and warm

Tells me I have come far enough

Chorus

Surrender to the unknown

Let the terror turn to sanctuary

Surrender to the unknown

I am not alone

Not alone

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh

Bridge

More than I realized

More than I confessed

Caliber encounters kept me

Kept me

Kept me

Chorus

Surrender to the unknown

Let the terror turn to sanctuary

Surrender to the unknown

I am not alone

Not alone

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh
