Some things don't fall apart all at once. # THREAD BY THREAD Written, composed & produced by: DNJL Performed by: Margot Lennox © ℗ 2026 DNJL. All rights reserved. [Verse 1] They stitched me into someone else's skin Thread by thread, where do I begin? Every smile was tailored to behave Every color chosen just to fade Silhouettes hanging in a perfect row Everybody tells you what to show Wear it well Wear it proud Disappear into the crowd [Pre-Chorus] Pull one thread... Watch it fall... [Chorus] Leave the coat Leave the name Leave the pretty little frame Leave the rules Leave the role Nothing fits this heart of gold Leave it on the roadside Leave it in the rain You loved the coat You never learned my name [Post-Chorus] Off Off Take it off Off Off Watch it drop Off Off Take it off I was never made to stay the same [Verse 2] Every mirror wanted one more face Every label tried to take my place You can keep the fabric and the thread I'm already somewhere else instead [Pre-Chorus] Pull one thread... Watch it fall... [Chorus] Leave the coat Leave the name Leave the pretty little frame Leave the rules Leave the role Nothing fits this heart of gold Leave it on the roadside Leave it in the rain You loved the coat You never learned my name [Bridge] Thread by thread Light gets in Thread by thread I begin Thread by thread Nothing left Only who I am [Final Chorus] Leave the coat Leave the crown Leave the weight that's pulling down Leave the mask Leave the blame I was never made to stay the same Leave it on the roadside Leave it in the rain You loved the coat You never learned my name [Outro] Off... Off... Take it off... Leave the coat.
