The Room Above


Artist: Ink & Echoes
Key Signature:
Time Signature: 4/4
Artist's Description
A cinematic, Southern Gothic bluegrass ballad with an ethereal female vocal and a chilling spoken-word center, "The Room Above" blends traditional acoustic textures with modern psychological depth. Using an abandoned room as a metaphor for buried trauma, it explores the haunting nature of memory and personal growth, and maps the journey of a wounded soul deciding whether to lock away past memories or finally face them to achieve true freedom.
A showcase for an alternative-roots or indie-folk artist in the vein of Gillian Welch, Rhiannon Giddens, or Alison Krauss, the track also offers potential for film and television sync licensing—particularly dark dramas, psychological thrillers, or period pieces looking for an atmospheric centerpiece.
See also: “Frozen Lake,” "Child Inside," and “Sometimes, Always.”

[Verse 1]
Above this room where I’m sleeping
There’s a room abandoned for years
‘Twas a space of laughter and warmth
That turned into a cave of fears

[Verse 2]
Its walls have seen all the things
Two wounded souls could ever share
All the light the sun could wish for
And the dark that’d make the devil run scared

[Verse 3]
Once I longed to leave this old house
Move far away from this town
Wipe my mind clean of all the memories
That promised to weigh me down

[Chorus]
That door stays ever closed
I thought of locking it, but changed my mind
If one day I decide to open it
It would mean I’m no longer blind.
That old room keeps on calling me
Its empty vastness my final test
If one day I choose to enter it
It would mean that I’m free at last

[Spoken word]
Late at night when I lie awake
And nothing moves in the gloom
Thick shadows descend from above
Calling me into their room
“Come with us,” they whisper, “we’ll guide you,
Come see the room with the new eyes,
The shapes things used to take back then
Aren’t the shapes of ‘em now”
They sing to me, tempt me, lull me
Till I’m ready to rise up and go
Then I recall the look in your eyes, and
I’m still not ready, I know

[Chorus]
That door stays ever closed
I thought of locking it, but changed my mind
If one day I decide to open it
It would mean I’m no longer blind
That old room keeps on calling me
Its empty vastness my final test
If one day I choose to enter it
It would mean that I’m free at last

When one day I go upstairs and enter it
It would mean
I’m free
At last
