White Walls

One chair
One cup
Keys by the door
That's enough

Clear shelf
Folded clothes
I know what stays
By what goes

Used to drown in everything
Every corner
Crowded skin
Now the quiet holds me up
I can hear myself again

Leave it all behind
Let it fall
Let it fall
I don't need much
Just air and a heartbeat
Simple little life
That is all
That is all
Take what I can carry
Drop what never fit me

Soft light
Plain plate
Old photograph
I still keep your face

One plant
Grows slow
I pour my worry
Watch it grow

Leave it all behind
Let it fall
Let it fall
I don't need much
Just air and a heartbeat
Simple little life
That is all
That is all
Take what I can carry
Drop what never fit me

If it doesn't love me back
It can't stay
If it doesn't make me breathe
It's in the way
Hands open
Pockets light
I'm walking out the same tonight

Leave it all behind
Let it fall
Let it fall
I don't need much
Just air and a heartbeat
Simple little life
That is all
That is all
Take what I can carry
Drop what never fit me
