Lyrics
[Intro] [Instrumental] [Verse 1] You drew a map in disappearing ink Across the back of a museum ticket Said every border is a dare to think Every locked door has a different cricket I watched the guard turn away from the frame While you slipped gold through the cracks of the meaning No one applauds when the rules lose their name But I could feel the whole room leaning [Pre-Chorus] You don't need a witness You don't need a sign You move like a secret That learned how to shine [Chorus] Take me where the compass breaks Where the north forgets our names Let the world keep its straight lines We were never built that way You make silence change its shape You make distance feel like grace If the door is only painted on We'll walk through it anyway [Verse 2] There was a broadcast under the floor A low blue pulse in the rails of the station You heard a language no one heard before And answered back without translation Your hands were steady, your eyes were bright Like a pilot steering by weather I left the timetable under the light And chose the unknown altogether [Pre-Chorus] You don't need a witness You don't need a sign You move like a secret That learned how to shine [Chorus] Take me where the compass breaks Where the north forgets our names Let the world keep its straight lines We were never built that way You make silence change its shape You make distance feel like grace If the door is only painted on We'll walk through it anyway [Bridge] Maybe the map was never wrong Maybe we were reading it too small Maybe the edge is just a song Waiting for somebody brave enough to call [Final Chorus] Take me where the compass breaks Where the north forgets our names Let the world keep its straight lines We were never built that way You make silence change its shape You make distance feel like grace If the door is only painted on We'll walk through it anyway [Outro] We'll walk through it anyway No border, no borrowed name We'll walk through it anyway
