Walls That Fold Twice (النسخة 2)

Verse

Dust on the shelf where your book used to sit

Fading light through a cracked blind tonight

I keep folding your jacket just right

And telling myself you'll be back by dawn

Your pillow's still warm in its nest

A cup of water on the windowsill

I'm trying not to think of the things that are lost

Just counting the steps it takes for me to sit down again

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is this the sound of nothing moving at all?

Or is it just my own heartbeat finally learning how to fall

Do I fold into myself or unfold instead?

And what if every door that opens also lets something in instead?

Chorus

I can see where you were standing on the wall

The spot where your shadow made a circle before it fell

I fold these walls until they're thin as paper again

I'm making space for everything I left behind

Verse

Your scarf's still tied to the door handle

I find it there and my breath keeps sliding down

Your toothbrush is drying by the sink

The mirror holds a ghost that keeps on smiling at me still

I've practiced this dance of empty rooms now for weeks

Counting every second until I start walking again

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is this the sound of nothing moving at all?

Or is it just my own heartbeat finally learning how to fall

Do I fold into myself or unfold instead?

And what if every door that opens also lets something in instead?

Chorus

I can see where you were standing on the wall

The spot where your shadow made a circle before it fell

I fold these walls until they're thin as paper again

I'm making space for everything I left behind

Bridge

It's not losing you that hurts so much

It's keeping all the rooms we used to move through intact

Maybe this is what surrender means — letting go of the ground

And finding out who I am after every wall has folded down

Chorus

I can see where you were standing on the wall

The spot where your shadow made a circle before it fell

I fold these walls until they're thin as paper again

I'm making space for everything I left behind
