I woke up on the boarding house floor with yesterday's dress still clinging to my shoulders
The wallpaper peeling like empires we swore would stand forever, now just dust and vapor
My mother's people built their lives on railway schedules and Sunday obligation
But the tracks got pulled up sometime while we were sleeping, and nobody sent word
I used to think my father's factory whistle was the only song worth knowing
Punched that clock for seven years before they chained the gates without a warning
All those blueprint promises they made us, every handshake sealed with spit and labor
Turned to smoke the moment someone calculated we weren't worth the trouble anymore
But something shifted when the old foundations crumbled
(When the old ways crumbled)
Just a fraction of an inch, but enough to let the water find new channels
(Find those new channels)
Maybe all that weight we carried wasn't ours to bear at all
The worries that were choking us are drifting out to sea now
The kingdoms that were crushing us are sinking in the harbor
I'm telling you to lean into me now, lean into me now
We're gonna find the current that will carry us away from here
The air is getting easier, my lungs are finally opening
I'm asking you to lean into me now, lean into me now
I found you in the railyard where the passenger cars go to die and rust in peace
(Where they go to rust in peace)
You were tracing all the routes on faded timetables like treasure maps to nowhere
(Maps that lead to nowhere)
But here's the thing about a life that breaks apart in your hands without permission
(Without your permission)
You get to build something strange and yours from all the pieces they discarded
So something opened when the old machinery stuttered
(When it finally stuttered)
Just a sliver of possibility, but bright enough to make us feel our heartbeat
(Feel that wild heartbeat)
Maybe all that guilt we swallowed never had our names attached at all
The worries that were choking us are drifting out to sea now
The kingdoms that were crushing us are sinking in the harbor
I'm telling you to lean into me now, lean into me now
We're gonna find the current that will carry us away from here
The air is getting easier, my lungs are finally opening
I'm asking you to lean into me now, lean into me now
(Female) I want to feel the blood move in my veins again
(Male) I want to feel like something other than a ghost
(Female) I want to walk through this decaying world and call it beautiful
(Male) I want to stop apologizing for surviving the collapse
(Both) We're not the ones who broke it, we're just the ones who get to see what grows
The worries that were choking us are drifting out to sea now
The kingdoms that were crushing us are sinking in the harbor
I'm telling you to lean into me now, lean into me now
We're gonna find the current that will carry us away from here
