Lyrics

[Intro]
I taught my hands to sleep, curled tight inside my sleeves.
I threw the deadbolt on my need and learned to breathe like stone.

[Verse 1]
I practiced being quiet till the echo forgot my name.
Palms stayed shut in my sleeves, half-moons carving skin.
Kept a coal under my ribs — not a fire, only heat.
Checked every latch by habit; nothing in, and nothing leaving.

[Build]

[Chorus]
I turn the lock backward and leave the door to swing.
I hold out an open hand and let the night see everything.
I feed that hidden coal, give it air, let it blaze.
If it shatters what I built, let the pieces learn my name.
It's dangerous to want — so I'll want it anyway.
It's dangerous to want — so I'll want it anyway.

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
Thin streetlight under the door draws a blade across the floor.
My fingers reach for chains I lost; I don't look for them anymore.
I open them, one by one, and let the tremor stay.
The coal under my ribs hums red; I think it learns my name.

[Build 2]

[Chorus 2]
So I leave the door unlocked, let the cold and the morning in.
Lay my open hand on thunder like I'm ready to begin.
If it breaks me open, let the light have somewhere to stay.
If it burns, it's proof I'm living in the center of the blaze.
It's dangerous to want — so I'll want it anyway.
It's dangerous to want — so I'll want it anyway. (anyway)

[Drop 2]

[Breakdown]
I don't clench. I don't close.
I leave the hinges breathing.
It's dangerous to want — so I'll want it anyway.

[Final Build]

[Final Drop]

[Outro]
It's dangerous to want — so I'll want it anyway.
