You drew a kingdom on my open hand Said we were written, said we had a plan I learned the rhythm of your waking day Kept the morning soft, kept the night away From your first breath to your final word I gave a year you never fully heard Your mind had windows I was never shown I stood beside you and still stood alone I won’t turn your name to thunder I won’t dress the truth in blame But I know the sound of promise When it starts to lose my name You promised me the world Then gave me borrowed rooms I kept the roof above us While your heart faced other views I was the hands, the home The breath beneath your day The faithful one beside you While your mind was far away No, I don’t hate your heart But I am done with the disguise I won’t be the shadow Where another woman shines I was yours with no ending You were mine with a door I was your borrowed forever Now I belong to me Borrowed forever Now I belong to me Borrowed forever Now I belong to me I saw the words I waited for so long Leave your mouth for someone else like songs The tenderness I begged the dark to bring Opened elsewhere like an easy spring Do not call it a dream I made alone You placed the promise where my heart could hold But while I gave my whole year to stay You kept a hidden life turned my way I won’t ask the wound to whisper I won’t beg the past to lie I only know I loved you fully While you loved me with goodbye You promised me the world Then gave me borrowed rooms I kept the roof above us While your heart faced other views I was the hands, the home The breath beneath your day The faithful one beside you While your mind was far away No, I don’t hate your heart But I am done with the disguise I won’t be the shadow Where another woman shines I was yours with no ending You were mine with a door I was your borrowed forever Now I belong to me I was not made for waiting In a life that would not choose Not made to guard the silence Of a heart I could not use I was not the quiet candle Burning where you came to rest Not the borrowed warmth beside you While another held your best So I gather every sunrise Every night I gave away I call my spirit back to me And leave with my name You promised me the world But left me at the door I gave you every season I won’t give one more I was the hands, the home The breath beneath your day The woman who kept loving While you looked the other way No, I don’t hate your heart I simply choose mine I won’t be the shadow Where another woman shines I was yours with no ending You were mine with a door I was your borrowed forever Now I belong to me Borrowed forever Now I belong to me Now I belong Now I belong Now I belong to me From morning into midnight I carried what we were Now I lay it down gently It does not answer for her It does not belong to sorrow It does not own my name I walk my path unbroken With nothing left to claim I was your borrowed forever Now I belong to me
