[Verse 1] I kept the jagged corners underneath a borrowed sleeve Every goodbye I never finished still hanging from the seams Tried to make a cleaner shape from everything that fell But the pieces learned my language And they knew me all too well [Pre-Chorus] Maybe healing isn’t closing every seam Maybe it is learning what the empty spaces mean [Chorus] I won’t cut the loose threads just to look complete Every stitch is where the lost parts came to meet If you love me, love the places I can’t hide I survived without becoming someone easier to like Take the silence, take the color, take the seams There is beauty in the shape that carried me [Verse 2] I used to think becoming whole meant leaving things behind Now I know the missing pages still belong inside the spine Some memories lose their color, some still ache when they return I don’t owe the past a fire Just to prove how well I burned [Pre-Chorus] Maybe healing isn’t closing every seam Maybe it is learning what the empty spaces mean [Chorus] I won’t cut the loose threads just to look complete Every stitch is where the lost parts came to meet If you love me, love the places I can’t hide I survived without becoming someone easier to like Take the silence, take the color, take the seams There is beauty in the shape that carried me [Bridge] Don’t mistake the seams for weakness Don’t confuse the scars with shame I have carried every version That was too afraid to stay Now the pieces are not pleading To be hidden or made new They are proof that I kept living And I still have room for you [Final Chorus] I won’t cut the loose threads just to look complete Every stitch is where the lost parts came to meet If you love me, love the places I once hid I survived without becoming what the hurt had planned Take the silence, take the color, take the seams There is beauty in the shape that carried me [Outro] Still becoming Still my own Not unfinished Coming home
