Empty Room Recovery

{steady synthetic heartbeat} One,

two, three, four. {sound of ticking clock and rhythmic breath} Five,

six, seven, eight. {phone sitting silent}

The storm is gone,

the air is clean at last

I wash the ashes of the fading past

Knock on the heavy wood to keep me sane Inside this room,

I don't feel any pain {sound of wood knock} I watch the

water run to clear the stain

I'll take the empty room

over the crowded lies

No more looking back,

no compromise (ahhhh)

{reclaiming the light} I hold the sovereign keys,

I watch the sun arise

The phone is silent,

resting on the floor

No knocking hands coming to my door

(no more, no more) {steady breathing rhythm}

I draw my boundaries deep into the stone

Finding my power standing here alone

I'll take the empty room

over the crowded lies

No more looking back,

no compromise (ahhhh) {reclaiming the light}

I hold the sovereign keys,

I watch the sun arise

One breath to purify Two hands to build the sky Three words

to clear the dark

Four beats to light the spark

{polyrhythmic

synth build} Quiet space,

quiet room. (hummmm)

{heartbeat fades into ticking foley} Sovereign state of mine.
