[Verse 1] I said yes before I checked the day Three little fires, all mine to save Your cracked blue mug beside the sink A half-sent note I didn’t finish thinking [Pre-Chorus] I know each room by what they need But when it’s quiet, what is me? [Chorus] I’ve spent my name in borrowed hands Kept every promise, lost my plans If I turn back through all I’ve done What small thing still makes my blood run? I’m pulling threads from every seam To find the pulse beneath the team [Verse 2] The garden’s dry, the inbox blooms I leave my coat in other rooms I take your worry home with mine Then wonder where I crossed the line [Pre-Chorus] No grand answer, no clean escape Just one true want I let take shape [Chorus] I’ve spent my name in borrowed hands Kept every promise, lost my plans If I turn back through all I’ve done What small thing still makes my blood run? I’m pulling threads from every seam To find the pulse beneath the team [Bridge] Maybe it’s the page before the pitch The hour no one needs to fix The crooked tune I hum alone The key that turns inside my own [Final Chorus] I’ve spent my name in borrowed hands Now I can loosen what I can’t command If I turn back through all I’ve done I’ll keep the spark that makes me run I’m pulling threads from every seam And finding who I am between [Outro] One honest yes One honest no A little room To hear it grow
