[Verse 1] Clock in while the morning's still gray Same steel door, same badge, same day Your old photograph curls by the sink I pass it each night too tired to think [Pre-Chorus] Then your name cuts through the hum Like a match struck where I came from I feel my hands remember warmth I feel the locked room coming undone [Chorus] I’ve been spending all my life on the line Trading every good hour for a number and time But your voice brings the blood back under my skin I’m not done, I can feel it begin If there’s a spark in this worn-out frame I’ll bring it back, I’ll call it by name [Verse 2] Lunch break swallowed by fluorescent light A paper cup and another late night I used to make plans on the back of a bill Now I save one small wish and I hold it still [Pre-Chorus] Then your name cuts through the hum Like a match struck where I came from I feel my hands remember warmth I feel the locked room coming undone [Chorus] I’ve been spending all my life on the line Trading every good hour for a number and time But your voice brings the blood back under my skin I’m not done, I can feel it begin If there’s a spark in this worn-out frame I’ll bring it back, I’ll call it by name [Bridge] Meet me where the river bends When this shift and this week finally end No grand promise, no perfect plan Just your hand reaching for my hand [Final Chorus] I’ve been spending all my life on the line Trading every good hour for a number and time But your voice brings the blood back under my skin I’m not done, I can feel it begin If there’s a spark in this worn-out frame I’ll bring it back, I’ll call it by name [Outro] I’m not done I can feel it begin
