Lyrics

Intro

Heavy rainfall on a tin roof

Low sub-bass hum creeping in

Distorted vinyl crackle

Verse 1

I left the keys under the mat like I used to do

But the lock is rusted over and the door won't let me through

Standing on the porch watching water fill the cracks

Every step I take forward pulls a ghost right back

The windows are fogged with the breath of the past

We built a sanctuary out of brittle glass

Pre-Chorus

Static on the wire, humming through the floor

I don't think I recognize this ceiling anymore

Is it getting colder or did the fire burn out?

Swallowing the words that we used to shout

Chorus

The foundation's cracking open under my feet

Where the quiet used to bleed into the empty street

Let the soil swallow up every single floor

We aren't hiding in the hallway anymore

No, we aren't hiding anymore

Verse 2

Peeling off the wallpaper, showing bare stone

Learning how to sit in a room that's fully grown

No echo in the kitchen, no shadow on the wall

Just the steady sound of rain starting to fall

I pack up the silence in a cardboard box

Turning all the keys in the heavy iron locks

Pre-Chorus

Static on the wire, humming through the floor

I don't think I recognize this ceiling anymore

Is it getting colder or did the fire burn out?

Swallowing the words that we used to shout

Chorus

The foundation's cracking open under my feet

Where the quiet used to bleed into the empty street

Let the soil swallow up every single floor

We aren't hiding in the hallway anymore

No, we aren't hiding anymore

Bridge

Let the roots grow through the floorboards now

We're gonna tear the whole structure down

Break the frame, let the roof fall in

This is where the new ground has to begin

Yeah, let the rain wash clean!
