Lyrics

Verse 1

The ceiling fan is spinning like a halo out of reach

And I’m tired of the sermons that the morning tries to preach

I’ve been carrying this body like a stone around my neck

Looking for a bridge or a way to clear the deck

The silence in this room is getting louder than the choir

And my spirit’s getting heavy, dragging through the mire.

Chorus

So let the darkness fold me in, like a letter never sent

I’ve spent every ounce of magic that the universe has lent

I’m looking for the exit, the one behind the veil

Where the heartbeat finally falters and the red blood turns to pale

It’s not a cry for mercy, it’s a plea for the release

To trade this hollow rhythm for an everlasting peace.

Verse 2

I’m tracing out the shadows where the light refused to go

There’s a comfort in the valley that the mountains never know

I’ve written out my secrets on the back of every tear

But the ink is running dry and the end is drawing near

No more waking up to shadows, no more fighting for a breath

Just a gentle conversation with the quiet grace of death.

Bridge

Don’t call it a tragedy, don’t call it a mistake

Even the strongest branches have a point where they must break

I’m just a weary traveler who’s finished with the road

Setting down the baggage and the heavy, heavy load

I’m stepping off the edge of everything I used to be.

Outro

Turn out the lights...

The show is over now.

Let the static take the air.

I’m already there.

I’m already there...
