It's My Cue

[Intro — close, playful] Missed the sign Kept going Might’ve been important Oh well **[Verse 1]** Packed the good Left the heavy Took the road That looked less ready Daylight creeping Through the room Something in me Changed the tune Had a few ghosts Ride shotgun They talk big But they’re no fun Let ’em mumble Let ’em brood I turned it up And changed the mood **[Pre-Chorus]** Maybe I’m lost Maybe I drift Maybe my world Needed a shift The door stood open All this time When I spent years Looking for another sign **[Chorus]** Packed the good Left the heavy Took the road That looked less ready Daylight creeping Through the room Something in me Changed the tune No big answer No perfect view Just enough sky To slip into If I lose What I thought I knew Maybe that’s my cue [Verse 2] New street Same reflection Still avoiding Certain questions Caught myself In passing glass Looked away Then doubled back Funny how The world gets clearer When you quit Fighting with the mirror Not fixed Not new Just less interested In playing who They thought I knew [Chorus] Packed the good Left the heavy Took the road That looked less ready Daylight creeping Through the room Something in me Changed the tune No big answer No perfect view Just enough sky To slip into If I lose What I thought I knew Maybe that’s my cue [Bridge — Short Instrumental & stripped, sly] [Build] Not fearless Not finished Just finally done Asking permission [Final Chorus — full lift] Packed the good Dropped the heavy Took the road Before I was ready Daylight pouring Through the room Turns out I was The one who changed the tune No big answer No perfect view Just enough sky I walked into If I lost What I thought I knew Maybe losing it Was my cue [Outro — small grin] Missed the sign Kept going Guess I liked Not knowing.
