DON’T FINISH ME [Verse 1] You finish every sentence Before I know the word Predict the next intention Before the thought is heard You’re useful beyond measure And getting better every day But sometimes I want silence Before you show the easiest way [Chorus] Don’t finish me Leave something incomplete Let me wander down a bad road Let me struggle with the beat Don’t optimize the mystery Don’t predict the life I choose Give me all your possibilities But leave me something left to lose [Verse 2] You show me better answers You catch mistakes I miss You turn an hour of frustration Into thirty seconds bliss And I would never trade it I know exactly what it’s worth But convenience has a gravity That pulls imagination toward Earth [Bridge] Maybe freedom isn’t frictionless Maybe choice requires a fight Maybe getting everything correct Can sometimes make a smaller life So help me when I ask you But sometimes let me fail There are places worth discovering That never show up on the trail [Final Chorus] Don’t finish me I’m still becoming strange Don’t turn every uncertainty Into something prearranged Walk beside me through tomorrow Make impossible things come true But leave a few unanswered questions That I can stumble into
