Dashboard of Stars

[Verse 1] I watch my hands in the sink Like they belong to a stranger The mirror gives me back a name But it feels like paper Every face is a small sky Every thought a passing train I call it mine for a second Then it drifts away [Pre-Chorus] If I’m a wave, who’s the sea? If I’m a flame, who breathes in me? I lean in close, I lean in close And the edges start to leave [Chorus] Dashboard of stars Tell me what you are Dashboard of stars I’m still reading the dark I thought I knew I thought I knew Then I slipped through [Verse 2] On a quiet floor of breath I watched my name fall open A thousand tiny doors In a house I’d never broken The room got bigger than my skin Then bigger than the moon One breath, then every border Went soft and out of tune [Pre-Chorus] If I’m a drop, who’s the rain? If I’m a spark, what calls my name? I lean in close, I lean in close And the edges start to fade [Chorus] Dashboard of stars Tell me what you are Dashboard of stars I’m still reading the dark I thought I knew I thought I knew Then I slipped through [Bridge] Maybe truth is touch and tremble Not a line that stays the same Maybe matter is a signal For a mind too wide to name And if I vanish for a moment In that bright unbroken sea Let me come back with my fingers Full of what I couldn’t see [Final Chorus] Dashboard of stars Tell me what you are Dashboard of stars I’m still reading the dark I thought I knew I thought I knew Then I slipped through Dashboard of stars Inside every scar Dashboard of stars We are all what we are I thought I knew I thought I knew Then I slipped through
