[hook intro]
i need it
[cold start]
[verse 1]
basement window
i can feel it moving

something in me
doesn’t sit right

i tried to ignore it
kept it quiet
told myself
it would pass

but it didn’t

---

[pre chorus]
i stayed with it
longer than i should

i knew it then
just didn’t say it

---

[chorus]
i need the antidote
not later
right now

something’s breaking open
i don’t know how

i need the antidote
before i disappear

---

[verse 2]
every signal
felt a little distant

like it wasn’t mine
anymore

i kept adjusting
kept it steady
even when
i knew

---

[pre chorus]
i bent everything
just to keep it still

but it kept moving

---

[chorus]
i need the antidote
not later
right now

something’s breaking open
i don’t know how

i need the antidote
before i disappear

---

[bridge — BUILD]
i saw it coming
i didn’t stop it

i felt it changing
i let it

i don’t know
when it took me

but i know
it did

---

[final chorus — LIFT]
i NEED the antidote
not later
RIGHT now

something’s breaking open
i can’t shut it down

i NEED the antidote
before i disappear

---

[outro]
i need it
i need it
