Freer Than Their Fear

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

They drew my life in careful lines

Every door already chosen

Small hands folded on the table

I was taught to hold my breath

Smile and never make a sound

Pre-Chorus

But the ceiling started cracking

And the cracks began to sing

Chorus

I am the storm they never named

I am the storm

Every promise they arranged

I let it fall

I let it fall

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

I let it fall

Oh-oh oh-oh

Verse 2

Painted rooms with painted futures

Polished floors I never walked

Now the plaster's on my shoulders

And I'm shaking off the weight

Like a mountain shedding rain

Pre-Chorus

The ceiling kept on breaking

And the breaking felt like wings

Chorus

I am the storm they never named

I am the storm

Every promise they arranged

I let it fall

I let it fall

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

I let it fall

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bridge

Burn the map they folded for me

Burn the crown they made me wear

I am louder than their silence

I am freer than their fear

Chorus

I am the storm they never named

I am the storm

Every promise they arranged

I let it fall

I let it fall

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

I let it fall

Oh-oh oh-oh

I am the storm
