verse 1:
i heard
you’re somewhere in another place from here
where sludgy soils and raindrops appear
you changed your name for the hundredth time
filled it in on the dotted line
i’m not surprised, you wished it’d come true

you’re learning how to sew its okay
to thread the needle a few times is brave
but you’ve done it for 8 years and some change
you’re thrеad is getting heavy

and you say its nothing, but it’s so much more
lay down your hands for oncе, they’re blistered and torn
red with contempt for yourself and what’s more
calluses radiate like shimmering scales

you tried to run from it
symptoms you won’t admit
crossed over rivers
and burned all your fears
count all your opened ends
i pray that you don’t pretend
like they don’t exist
i won’t let you split
you’ve sewn quite a lot these years
stitched all your arms with fear
saw what you shouldn’t
and stood still at the rails

all that you’ve left behind
hardly a thought by now
put down the needle
those stitches aren’t the same

thought for a moment
weight on your shoulders

is this high enough
this is just the start

climbed all the way
don’t have potential

don’t wanna stay
everyone’s acknowledged

one moment more
i can’t stand those eyes

hard to recognise
never be a part
can’t hold a candle
can’t compromise

can’t fit the square, can’t
ever be any more

verse 2:
its that dream
where i’m not looked at differently

its that place
where we’re treated the same

its that place
its those trees
its the ground with no leaves

its the look on your face
even though you’re asleep

its the peace you’ve obtained
its that dream you can’t wake from

where your skin is yours to bear
no need to scratch and tear
that moment when
the weight you’re still holding
comes free

that frame of time
holding out hope
that you’d see

a better life
one where you’re doubts
won’t succeed

its in your hands
but you won’t ever see it
if you go

verse 3:
and what’s there?
there’s so much more
that you could see

there’s so much hope
way underneath

just open up
don’t wait your turn

your weight is your own
and those chains aren’t all sewn

don’t be
tied to those eyes

you don’t need, to be
judged to have worth
anymore

your tree shelters more than you think
just let it all grow

you don’t need to be
afraid of what’s ahead

it could be
that you’re better off

without those chains
dug into you
dug into you
dug into you
dug into you
dug into you
