My Own Handwriting

V6

[Verse 1] You measure me in neat little columns I spill past every line you drew I wear my laugh at full volume And keep the parts you can't review [Pre-Chorus] Every odd angle, every bright mistake Turns into a color I can make [Chorus] This is my name, in my own handwriting All of my colors, alive and colliding I won't cut a piece away to fit your frame I get to choose what I become, what I claim [Verse 2] My voice can turn from hush to thunder My mind takes roads that twist and flare I used to call that being different Now I call it mine, and wear it there [Pre-Chorus] Every strange rhythm has a pulse to keep Every seed has its own way to leap [Chorus] This is my name, in my own handwriting All of my colors, alive and colliding I won't cut a piece away to fit your frame I get to choose what I become, what I claim [Bridge] Let the bright parts show Let the rough parts stay I am not a draft I am here this way [Final Chorus] This is my name, in my own handwriting All of my colors, alive and colliding I won't cut a piece away to fit your frame I get to choose what I become, what I claim [Outro] Every piece of me belongs
