Текст песни
[Verse 1] You keep a map of places no one names Folded in quarters, marked with silver flames I found your handwriting beneath the train A little route through every kind of change [Pre-Chorus] You said, “Don’t promise me a destination” So I brought my hands and my imagination [Chorus] Let’s take the long way through the signal Where the lost ones leave a trace You turn a locked door into a riddle I turn the riddle into space No, I don’t need the world to know us No parade, no borrowed proof Just your strange beautiful compass Pulling me toward something true [Verse 2] You wore a blue thread tied around your wrist For every version of yourself you missed At the museum, under extinct birds You made a kingdom out of broken words [Pre-Chorus] You said, “The future has a crooked entrance” I said, “Then let’s arrive without a sentence” [Chorus] Let’s take the long way through the signal Where the lost ones leave a trace You turn a locked door into a riddle I turn the riddle into space No, I don’t need the world to know us No parade, no borrowed proof Just your strange beautiful compass Pulling me toward something true [Bridge] If the city changes all its names If the map forgets the route we made I’ll recognize you by the way You make the silence rearrange [Final Chorus] Let’s take the long way through the signal Where the lost ones leave a trace You turn a locked door into a riddle I turn the riddle into space No, I don’t need the world to know us No parade, no borrowed proof Just your strange beautiful compass Pulling me toward something true [Outro] Something true Something true Your strange beautiful compass Pulling me toward something true
