[Intro]
Whispers fade in the dust, a staircase sighs beneath my feet
Echoes hum where laughter lived, a map of temps and silent streets
[Verse 1]
I walk the hallways of forgotten light, rusted bells unchimed
Footsteps trace the ghosts of rooms where colors once defined
A piano waits with quiet keys, a memory in the dust
I hear a distant storm of memory, begging me to trust
[Pre-Chorus]
Voices drift like moths around a flame of past lives
I pause where windows melt to portraits of long-gone nights
[Chorus]
Tell me what you heard when doors fell asleep, tell me what you kept inside
The floorboards hum a lullaby of yesterday, a soft, unspoken guide
In every corner, a story hides in plain sight
Calling me back to the glow of life now quiet and bright
[Verse 2]
A bell jar of silence hums above the stairs I climb
Faint wind through broken panes draws maps of whispered time
Footprints in the cellar floor spell out a chorus of light
The kitchen clock tilts toward the dawn that never left our sight
[Pre-Chorus]
Memories ripple like curtains in a breeze of distant cheers
I listen for a voice that clears the dust and answers years
[Chorus]
Tell me what you heard when doors fell asleep, tell me what you kept inside
The floorboards hum a lullaby of yesterday, a soft, unspoken guide
In every corner, a story hides in plain sight
Calling me back to the glow of life now quiet and bright
[Bridge]
If the walls could speak in colors, they’d spill a crowded scene
Of laughter frozen in a photograph, of hands that touched the stream
We walk the hall with patient ears, we listen for the rain
The past pours through the silence, teaching us to breathe again
[Chorus]
Tell me what you heard when doors fell asleep, tell me what you kept inside
The floorboards hum a lullaby of yesterday, a soft, unspoken guide
In every corner, a story hides in plain sight
Calling me back to the glow of life now quiet and bright
[Outro]
So I linger where the long gone heartbeat lingers in the light
Leaving only footprints and a gentle memory in the night
