Intro
Static hum, apartment walls,
your scent still here, morning light
creeping under the door
Verse 1
I'd gone years without waking up to the sun
my body numb, a hollowed-out drum
the city outside was a distant thrum
a constant reminder I wasn't done
yet somehow managed to survive each day
in a haze of medication and dismay
counting down the minutes till I could sleep
the numbness a fragile shield I'd learned to keep
then one morning the fog began to lift
the meds wore off, I felt my heart shift
a new awareness like a slow unfurl
the world outside my window was no longer dull
I felt it in the small things: birds singing loud
kids playing on the rooftop, the wind's gentle cloud
Hook
Feel the signal rising in the air
Verse 2
it's funny how much you take for granted
the simple joys of being alive and planted
in one place, not constantly on the run
I'd lost track of seasons, years, who I'd become
but that morning, something sparked inside
a sense of possibility, a new stride
I started walking, feeling the ground beneath
and every step was like a whispered secret breath
Hook
Feel the signal rising in the air
Verse 3
now I move with a newfound ease and pace
no longer trapped by my own numb space
the world's vibrant colors bleeding through the haze
each day a gift, each moment a new daze
I'm learning to feel alive again, free
no longer held back by what used to be
Outro
static hum, apartment walls,
your scent still here, morning light
