[Intro] [Intro] The sea gave me back with somebody else’s face. You called me love by the [Verse 1] I came in soaked from the edge of the story, salt in my collar, sand in my teeth. The moon had a crack like a folded letter, and the harbor kept breathing under me. I borrowed a coat. I borrowed a voice. I made one life out of two bad choices. Your house had music behind the shutters, soft as a secret learning my shape. You looked at me like I had been expected, like grief had opened the wrong gate. I should have corrected you. I should have run. But your hand found mine, and the lie felt warm. [Chorus] You loved me under shipwrecked names. Right heart, wrong frame. I heard the truth wear somebody’s face. You loved me under shipwrecked names. [Verse 2] Somewhere my brother was breathing saltwater, or maybe walking in borrowed light. Somewhere a mirror was missing my answer, somewhere my shadow was dressed in white. You said a name that wasn’t mine, and still my chest stepped forward. Strange how a lie can open a door that the honest key never ordered. The hall went blue. The candle leaned. Your mouth made mercy out of mistaken things. I knew the tide would bring the bill. I knew the mask had teeth. But for one whole song you stood so close I forgot who I was supposed to be. [Chorus] You loved me under shipwrecked names. Right heart, wrong frame. I heard the truth wear somebody’s face. You loved me under shipwrecked names. [Bridge] When the morning asks, what do I tell it? That I wore the wrong life and almost fit? That your eyes knew less than your hands confessed? That I lied by standing still? If love finds the door through a borrowed name, does the room forgive who came? [Final Chorus] You loved me under shipwrecked names. Right heart, wrong frame. I heard the truth wear somebody’s face. I loved you back under shipwrecked names. [Outro] The tide came in. The mask came loose. You said my name. I missed the bruise. [End]
