Verse 1

We arrive without a map of this place

The river is still running through our names

Water chased us down the narrowing dark

We made it out but something stayed behind

There are six million thresholds we don't recognize

Doors we did not choose, rooms with borrowed time

Chorus

We are starting over in the unfamiliar

Hands still shaped around what we released

The world keeps setting fires at the edges

And we keep building something to believe

We are starting over, always starting over

Not because we wanted to be free

But because the ground beneath us kept on moving

And we had to move with what remained of we

Verse 2

Somewhere a lake holds what the years forgot

A cold case opens like a cracking seam

The jury cannot find the shared edge yet

Still circling the center of a dream

Weddings turned to grief notes in the rubble

Drones above a city that won't sleep

We are cataloguing every threshold

Counting what the current tried to keep

Bridge

We have been displaced before and still remained

We have spoken our address into the rain

Not the country on the paper, not the flag

But the specific weight of starting over again

Something in us carries on regardless

Something stubborn, unnamed, unredeemed

Chorus

We are starting over in the unfamiliar

Hands still shaped around what we released

The world keeps setting fires at the edges

And we keep building something to believe

We are starting over, always starting over

Not because we wanted to be free

But because the ground beneath us kept on moving

And we had to move with what remained of we

Outro

Six million new addresses

The water still behind us

We write our names again

Instrumental Outro

How did it make you feel?

A new song arrives tomorrow.
