What would you do if you discovered parts of yourself that you had no idea were there? This song explores that idea and how Kit embraced those aspects of themself.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, I'd welcome you in, but I'm working on
Patching up a dent left by some friends
My sofa is an outdated shade of blush
Not much here aligns with the trends

[Verse 2]
Roll your eyes at the retro rose-hued walls
They've bested hurricane force winds
I can point out every crack, chip, and mark
Show all the house's secrets and sins

[Chorus]
This house grows older as all things do
It's still my shelter and my refuge (My refuge)
Sunrise to sunset, sunshine to rain
Seasons will pass and aspects may change
But in its bones and solid frame (In its bones, yeah)
The house remains the same (The same)
The house remains the same
(The house remains the same)

[Interlude]
The house, the house, the house, the house
The house, the house, the house, the house, the house, the house
The house, the house, the house, the house
The house, the house, the house, the house, the house, the house

[Verse 3]
Then imagine my shock when I saw
Strange scars I never noticed before
A textured painted-over patch of wall
I tore it down and found a door

[Verse 4]
That blue room was at the center of the house
Its existence felt completely new
But that sapphire space was always inside
Whether or not I overtly knew

[Chorus]
This house grows older as all things do
It's still my shelter and my refuge
Sunrise to sunset, sunshine to rain
Seasons will pass and aspects may change
But in its bones and solid frame
The house remains the same
The house remains the same
The same
The same
The same

[Verse 5]
This old house has emotion and memory
Carved in every last scar and stone
No matter what I may uncover (No matter what)
The house remains the same and it's my home (Home)
