[Verse 1] You drew a line across the water Said, “Stay inside the shape” I watched the ink run through the current And kept my own name [Chorus] I am not the measure you made I am the tide beneath the floor You can hold the door shut I can still become the shore [Verse 2] A spoon rings once against the table The room takes it away I count the silence after silence And keep what I can say [Chorus] I am not the measure you made I am the tide beneath the floor You can hold the door shut I can still become the shore [Outro] No borrowed shape No borrowed name The water moves The water stays
