Lyrics
[Verse 1] You found the map beneath the paint On a wall they swore was blank A red thread through the old parade A borrowed name, a hidden gate I watched you trace the missing years Past the names erased by rain Every answer changed its shape Every silence left a stain [Pre-Chorus] Don’t tell me where the road goes Tell me what it costs to turn There’s a kind of truth that only Shows itself when bridges burn [Chorus] Meet me where the signal fades Beyond the reach of borrowed praise We’ll trade our masks for honest weight And let the unknown set the pace If the world keeps moving fast We can make a moment last No promises carved in stone Just two brave hearts off the known [Verse 2] You kept a matchbook from a town That vanished under reservoir blue Four small flames and a faded crown A paper kingdom lost to you I brought a record with no label Found beneath a theater seat Someone’s voice is almost stable Singing like they won’t repeat [Pre-Chorus] Don’t tell me what the night knows Tell me what you choose to hear There’s a door inside the danger And it opens when we’re near [Chorus] Meet me where the signal fades Beyond the reach of borrowed praise We’ll trade our masks for honest weight And let the unknown set the pace If the world keeps moving fast We can make a moment last No promises carved in stone Just two brave hearts off the known [Bridge] Let the old coordinates scatter Let the compass lose its north We were never built for answers We were built to venture forth [Final Chorus] Meet me where the signal fades Past the edge of mapped-out days We’ll carry only what is true And leave the rest for someone new If the world keeps moving fast We can make a moment last No promises carved in stone Just two brave hearts off the known [Outro] Off the known Still becoming Off the known No way back, no need for one
