Lyrics

[Intro]
Engine idles at the curb, keys bite my palm

[Verse 1]
Porch light flickers yellow on the peeling paint
Numbers on the mailbox still know my name
I park in the driveway I used to sit in, bracing for what came inside
Breathing through the buzz, I leave the engine running

[Build]

[Chorus]
It's just a house now, just a roof and floor
The walls don't talk back anymore
I gave it my ghost, I'm taking it back
It's just a house now, and I'm not yours

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
Steps creak like a bad joke I won't laugh at
Curtains hang dull on that room; no monster in the glass
I open the door, nothing lunges from the past
Four ordinary walls, and my hands don't shake

[Build 2]

[Chorus 2]
It's just a house now, it can't make me small
The walls don't talk back anymore
I gave it my ghost, I'm taking it back
It's just a house now, and that is all

[Drop 2]

[Breakdown]
Keys press half-moons in my skin, and I let them go
I turn off the engine and breathe like the street is mine

[Final Build]

[Final Drop]

[Outro]
It's just a house now
