[Verse 1] Some mornings I want to pull the pin On every plan I’ve kept alive Watch the careful scaffolding fold And see what’s left when nothing survives [Pre-Chorus] A clean page feels like a dare A door I could kick wide But I picture your face in the wreckage And I put the match aside [Chorus] I want the whole thing gone The frame, the name, the shape I’m in A sudden empty field Where I could start without a skin Then I remember you would feel it Every piece that hits the ground So I stay here, hands still shaking While the urge runs itself down [Verse 2] I could call the breaking freedom Call the silence something new But your laugh lives in this tangled life And I can’t make it pay for what I do [Bridge] Maybe courage isn’t burning Maybe it’s the slower choice To let the wanting pass through me Without turning it to noise [Final Chorus] I want the whole thing gone The frame, the name, the shape I’m in A sudden empty field Where I could start without a skin Then I remember you would feel it Every piece that hits the ground So I stay here, hands still shaking And let tomorrow come around [Outro] I stay. I stay.
