Lyrics
Verse 1
Pulled the calendar down
Taped the last page to the door
Said
"You taught me what you could"
Then swept your dust off the floor
Old coffee in the sink
Missed calls I never returned
All the could-have-beens and almosts
Boxed up
Ready to burn
Chorus
Bring in the new
Let the light rush through
All the rooms I kept locked
All the thoughts I outgrew
Bring in the new
Let it sing
Let it bloom
If the past keeps knocking
I won't open the room
Verse 2
Tossed that jacket I outgrew
Still smelled like staying too long
Cleared the notes from my mirror
Left one line: "You are strong"
Called a friend I’d almost lost
Laughed till the morning came
Guess I needed all that breaking
To make some space for change
Chorus
Bring in the new
Throw open the door
Let all the dust
Run off the floor
Hands in the air
Like we've got nothing to lose
Leave what we outgrew
Bring in the new
Bridge
Here’s to the plan that failed
The messages I never sent
Here’s to the tears on the steering wheel
Teaching me what endings meant
Now every small beginning
Feels wild
Feels overdue
I’m stepping through this doorway
Both hands up
Shouting through—
Chorus
Bring in the new
Let the light rush through
All the rooms I kept locked
All the thoughts I outgrew
Bring in the new
Let it sing
Let it bloom
If the past keeps knocking
I won't let them into the room
Verse 3
Found an old list
Folded in my winter coat
Things I swore I'd change last year
Still written in the same ink
Kitchen clock ticks
Like it's laughing at my plans
Coffee gone cold on the counter
But my heart's already packed
Pre-Chorus
All the almosts
All the "maybe next times"
They can stay in yesterday
I’m stepping over that line
Chorus
Bring in the new
Throw open the door
Let all the dust
Run off the floor
Hands in the air
Like we've got nothing to lose
Leave what we outgrew
Bring in the new
Verse 4
Box by the door
Filled with clothes that never fit
Old photos in a shoebox
I kiss them once
Then let go
Taxi outside
Headlights painting stripes on walls
I’m lighter than my suitcase
Heavier than I look
Pre-Chorus
All the half-said
All the words I swallowed
Staying here where they belong
I’m breathing in tomorrow
Chorus
Bring in the new
Throw open the door
Let all the dust
Run off the floor
Hands in the air
Like we've got nothing to lose
Leave what we outgrew
Bring in the new
Verse 5
Pulled the calendar down
Taped the last page to the door
Said
"You taught me what you could"
Then swept your dust off the floor
Old coffee in the sink
Missed calls I never returned
All the could-have-beens and almosts
Boxed up
Ready to burn
Chorus
Bring in the new
Let the light rush through
All the rooms I kept locked
All the thoughts I outgrew
Bring in the new
Let it sing
Let it bloom
If the past keeps knocking
I won't let them into the room
Verse 6
Tossed that jacket I outgrew
Still smelled like staying too long
Cleared the notes from my mirror
Left one line: "You are strong"
Called a friend I’d almost lost
Laughed till the morning came
Guess I needed all that breaking
To make some space for change
Chorus
Bring in the new
Throw open the door
Let all the dust
Run off the floor
Hands in the air
Like we've got nothing to lose
Leave what we outgrew
Bring in the new
Verse 7
Here’s to the plan that failed
The messages I never sent
Here’s to the tears on the steering wheel
Teaching me what endings meant
Now every small beginning
Feels wild
Feels overdue
I’m stepping through this doorway
Both hands up
Shouting through—
Chorus
Bring in the new
Let the light rush through
All the rooms I kept locked
All the thoughts I outgrew
Bring in the new
Let it sing
Let it bloom
If the past keeps knocking
I won't let them in the room
Verse 8
low vocal register
This time I won't wait
For some perfect day
I’ll learn as I go
Mess up and still glow
crescendo
Counting down loud
Ten
Nine
Feel it now
Eight
Seven
Say it out
Six
Five
New life
Chorus
Bring in the new
Let the light rush through
All the rooms I kept locked
All the thoughts I outgrew
Bring in the new
Let it sing
Let it bloom
If the past keeps knocking
I won't let them into the room
Bring in the new
Throw open the door
Let all the dust
Run off the floor
Hands in the air
Like we've got nothing to lose
Leave what we outgrew
Bring in the new
Fades out
