Mourn the Shape of Us

[Verse 1] Lay the table bare Set the candles low Count the cracks in the floor And the names we used to know Every door we shut Every road we broke Sits like dust on our hands Like a vow we never spoke [Pre-Chorus] We were carrying What could not stay Grief in our pockets And dawn on the way [Chorus] Mourn the shape of us Mourn the shape of us What we held so hard What slipped through our hands Mourn the shape of us Mourn the shape of us We were never one thing We were shifting sand [Verse 2] Do not dress the wound With a crown of blame Even the sweetest fire Leaves its mark the same Let the dark arrive Let it call us home We have worn our brave faces For too long alone [Pre-Chorus] We were carrying What could not stay Grief in our pockets And dawn on the way [Chorus] Mourn the shape of us Mourn the shape of us What we held so hard What slipped through our hands Mourn the shape of us Mourn the shape of us We were never one thing We were shifting sand [Bridge] Now the rain can speak For the words we hid Wash the ash from our sleeves And the life we missed If we lose the map Let the night be kind We are less than a verdict More than what we left behind [Final Chorus] Mourn the shape of us Mourn the shape of us What we held so hard What slipped through our hands Mourn the shape of us Mourn the shape of us We were never one thing We were shifting sand Mourn the shape of us Mourn the shape of us And let the silence Learn our names again
