[Куплет 1] You drew a red line through the atlas Said, “that’s where the old names end” A paper moon above the border A borrowed coat, a counterfeit friend You kept one match inside your wallet For a country without a flag I watched you trade your real last name For a number on a laundry tag [Алдынғы қайырма] And i won’t ask what you escaped Or make a saint of what you break [Қайырма] Leave the map face down, leave the map face down Let the compass spin till it forgets this town If the past comes calling, let it call alone You were never built to live inside a stone Leave the map face down I’ll meet you where the borders drown [Куплет 2] There’s a museum under water Where the statues learn to breathe Every guide has lost their language Every lock has lost its key You found a room of silent radios Broadcasting a vanished year Held your hand against the speaker Just to prove that you could hear [Алдынғы қайырма] No grand escape, no clean goodbye Just two loose sparks refusing sky [Қайырма] Leave the map face down, leave the map face down Let the compass spin till it forgets this town If the past comes calling, let it call alone You were never built to live inside a stone Leave the map face down I’ll meet you where the borders drown [Көпір] Don’t give me forever Give me one true direction A pulse under pressure A door without a lesson We’ll move like contraband Through the hands of the night No flag, no photograph Just the nerve to cross the line [Final chorus] Leave the map face down, leave the map face down Let the compass spin till it forgets this town If the past comes calling, let it call alone You were never built to live inside a stone Leave the map face down I’ll meet you where the borders drown [Аутро] No flag, no photograph No name they can pin down Leave the map face down We’ll make another route now
