Lyrics:

I know the feeling in the morning when the sun
lights the dust that hangs in orbit as you’re waking up.
For a moment you feel weightless, then the panic comes—
first a drizzle, then a downpour, then an endless flood.
We start to run—brothers in the summer dusk—
far enough that no one’s ever catching up.

I know the feeling when the light begins to fade,
and the dishes in the sink look like a mountain range.
You try to will yourself to stand, but you can’t find the strength.
Threw your head against the cold glass of the window pane.
You’re afraid of what happens when it finally breaks,
and all that remains is shattered glass and constant gray.

Bruised and paper cut,
I built a thousand paper cranes for good luck,
but I can’t protect you.
I had my chance, and I fucked it up.

I stared for years at all the duct tape on the door,
held together like a patient in a trauma ward.
I still don’t know what the fuck they kept it for.
This house is haunted. I can’t live in here anymore.
Over time, I realized you were on the other side,
and I can’t imagine what that must have felt like.

I had that nightmare again—
you’re five and you’re helpless,
trapped under the wreckage.
You reach out your hand,
but I’m weak, I can’t save you.
No matter how often it plays in my head,
I can’t lift it up.
