[Verse 1] I left my name in my jacket With the keys and the rent The road gave me a side-eye Like it knew what I meant Each mile kept my own breath Each turn changed its face I was almost nowhere Before I left the place [Pre-Chorus] And the ground kept tugging Like it knew my shoes I heard my old life crack open Somewhere out of view No map for the ending No lamp on the rail Just a black river token And a paper-thin veil [Chorus] I’m on my way down I’m on my way down (way down) Don’t call me back now Don’t call me back now (calling back now) I crossed that border I crossed that line I’m not disappearing I’m just out of sight [Verse 2] The stations stayed half-lit And my shadow trailed Every face in the window Wore a version of me I caught a hand at the glass Not sure whose it was I leaned in, then it vanished Like it never was [Pre-Chorus] And the ground kept tugging Like it knew my shoes I heard my old life crack open Somewhere out of view No map for the ending No lamp on the rail Just a black river token And a paper-thin veil [Chorus] I’m on my way down I’m on my way down (way down) Don’t call me back now Don’t call me back now (calling back now) I crossed that border I crossed that line I’m not disappearing I’m just out of sight [Bridge] If you spot me in the static By the phone booth glare Tell the spare-room version of me I might still be there The streetlamp hums like a loose tooth The map folds wrong I keep hearing somebody Might have my name all wrong [Final Chorus] I’m on my way down I’m on my way down (way down) Don’t call me back now Don’t call me back now (or maybe do) I crossed that border Or I thought I did I’m not disappearing I just can’t say where I am
