If Walls Could Whisper, They’d Beg Us to Leave

Intro (simple, 4 bars – clean or light overdrive) (soft) Every crack in the ceiling Knows my name (drums kick in — FAST) Verse 1 (fast, driving, no heavy chugs) I built this room with steady hands Measured fear in inches and plans Every doubt I couldn’t face Found a corner, found a place Heartbeat racing with the light Static buzzing every night I tell myself I’m fine, I’m fine While drawing borders in my mind Pre-Chorus (melodic lift, drums pushing) The air is thin But I stay inside I lock the door From the other side Chorus (BIG, open chords, catchy) If walls could whisper They’d beg us to leave They’d say, “You’re stronger Than what you believe” Every shadow Started with me If these walls could whisper They’d beg us to leave Verse 2 (same tempo, more urgency) Running circles in my head Every word I never said Every line I drew in fear Getting smaller every year (Scream layer possible under last line) I wear control like it’s a shield But every fracture gets revealed I’m fighting wars that never show Behind a face that says “I know” Pre-Chorus (stronger) The cracks are loud They call my bluff The door’s unlocked But I’m not tough Chorus (bigger harmonies) If walls could whisper They’d beg us to leave They’d say, “You’re not What anxiety speaks” Every shadow Started with me If these walls could whisper They’d beg us to leave Bridge (HALFTIME — small breather) (soft, clean) What if the cage Was never closed? What if the fear Was self-imposed? (build) I’ve been guarding Every open door (quick scream burst) I CAN’T DO THIS ANYMORE Final Chorus (FULL SPEED return, no breakdown) If walls could whisper They’d beg us to leave They’d tear down every Lie I believe No more hiding No more retreat If these walls could whisper They’d beg us to leave
