[verse 1] Low light through the motel curtain You’re breathing slow like nothing’s certain I watch the smoke dissolve the air Just like the way you used to care [verse 2] One road calls with quiet mercy The other burns in memory I’m stranded at the edge of both And neither one feels close to me [chorus] There’s two roads to take But there’s only one of me Can’t be in both places With this fragile symmetry I hear you in the silence Like you never really leave There’s two roads to take But there’s only one of me [verse 3] You said love is just surrender But I’ve held too much to remember You're the calm I never found And the noise that pulls me down [chorus] There’s two roads to take But there’s only one of me I can’t fake forever When I’m barely in between Both paths are fading slowly Like a half-forgotten dream There’s two roads to take But there’s only one of me [bridge] Hands on a stranger But I still feel yours No matter the turn I'm not what I was before [outro] Two roads, two ends, both forsaken One heart, one thread, slowly breaking There’s two roads to take But there’s only one of me
