Window Open

[Intro] Window open Air moving through Nothing broken Nothing to prove [Verse 1] Curtain breathing in and out Morning leaning through the screen Street sounds rising from below Dog bark, tires, a voice, a breeze There were years I kept it shut Like the world came only sharp Like every sound beyond the glass Was looking for a way in But today the room feels wider And I don’t mind what enters slow A little weather on the table A little life I do not control [Pre-Chorus] Maybe not everything that comes in Means to take something from me [Chorus] Window open Let the light arrive Let the air move through me Without calling it a threat this time Window open Nothing forced, nothing chased Just the world coming near And me not turning away [Verse 2] I can hear the neighbor’s radio A lawnmower somewhere down the block The kind of ordinary noise I used to file under danger But the body learns by inches And trust comes in on smaller things A window left unguarded A chest that doesn’t lock No revelation in it Just one less bolt drawn tight And the quiet kind of courage Of letting day inside [Pre-Chorus] Maybe openness Isn’t weakness Maybe air is just air [Chorus] Window open Let the light arrive Let the air move through me Without calling it a threat this time Window open Nothing forced, nothing chased Just the world coming near And me not turning away [Bridge] No flood No storm No great undoing Just movement Just breath Just something outside the room Not asking to be feared And me For once Believing it [Final Chorus] Window open Let the day come in Let the dust turn gold Let the old guard thin Window open I don’t need to know What every sound will mean To let the morning go where it goes [Outro] Window open Air moving through Nothing broken Nothing to prove
