I heard the clock hum
its hollow tune
A whisper secret to the empty room
No voices, no faces, just a quiet bloom
And I thought I'd drown in the silence But it held me
soft and still
Alone at last, the noise has gone I found
a place where I belong
No need for shadows,
no need for lies
Just me,
the stars,
and
open skies
I made my peace with the creaking floor
It sings me lullabies and nothing more
The world outside can't knock,
I'll lock the door
The echoes speak in a language I know They ask no questions,
they let me grow
