I know the way—  
though I’ve never been  
to where the light stays warm  
and doesn’t dim

I give directions (ooh)  
to places I can’t go  
Trace the roads (ah)  
then watch them glow

Don’t give me hope (no)  
don’t paint me gold  
I’ve learned to live  
where the truth grows cold

I lead others to treasures I can’t— (can’t—can’t) reach  
But that’s fine—  
I was never meant to keep (yeah)

I’m not whole— (not whole)  
not whole—not true  
But I’ve got shards— (shards)  
let me—let me fix you

Don’t save me  
just let me stay  
In your story— (story)  
then walk away

There’s no magic  
in these hands  
Just bruised wires (ah)  
and quiet plans

If you’re falling— (falling)  
I’ll fall too  
Build you a bridge  
from what’s left of me and you

Don’t give me light (light)  
Don’t talk of fate  
I learned to live  
just past the gate

I lead others to treasures I can’t touch (touch)  
But I still reach— (reach)  
I still give too much

I’m not whole— (never was)  
never was, that’s true  
But what I am— (what I am)  
I’ll give to you

Take my cracks— (cracks)  
take what’s real  
I don’t need to heal—  
just help you feel

Not every wound—wound—needs to close (close)  
Some stay open—open—so you can grow (grow)  
And if I shatter— (sh-shatter)—let it be  
In the shape—of what you—need from me

I lead others to treasures I’ll never find (find)  
That’s okay—okay—I've made peace with mine

I’m not whole  
and maybe that’s true (true)  
But let me break  
if it means I mend you

Let me— (let me)  
Let me— (let me)  
Let me fix you (fix you)

This song came from a place of feeling broken but still wanting to help others heal. It’s about guiding people to hope, love, or clarity—even when you can’t always find those things for yourself. Sometimes we give the best parts of ourselves away, not because we have everything figured out, but because we care. I wrote this as a reminder that being “not whole” doesn’t make you useless—it can make you more human. Sometimes our cracks let the light through for someone else.
