The Seam

V6

[Verse 1] I wake with several names beneath my tongue One knows the exit, one still thinks we're young One keeps a ledger of the things I hide One walks beside me, looking from outside [Pre-Chorus] If every life has left a mark on me Where does the borrowed end and I begin? [Chorus] Which one is the real me? Which voice should I believe? Am I the sum of every self I’ve been, Or split beyond the reach of gathering? If all these lives are mine to keep, Will I be scattered endlessly? [Verse 2] I speak in rooms that none of them have seen Each version swears it knows what I mean I try to choose, but every choice divides A thousand little witnesses inside [Pre-Chorus] No single thread can pull the whole thing tight Still, every strand is mine tonight [Chorus] Which one is the real me? Which voice should I believe? Am I the sum of every self I’ve been, Or split beyond the reach of gathering? If all these lives are mine to keep, Will I be scattered endlessly? [Outro] Maybe I’m not one, maybe I’m the seam Holding all the lives that answer when I speak
