Lyrics

No one told me, I just knew
Permanence lived only in the rear view
In the atlas of my mind
No routes ran a straight line
Found this place on a whim
Stripped me clean and it took me in
This city didn’t raise me, but it saved me just in time

‘Cause it’s a small big world out there
We live in this armor we learn to wear
It’s hard work but worth it to toe the lines
Of these small big hearts of yours, yours and mine

Apparitions in a line
Offering what’s already mine
In the atlas of my heart
No key to identify the good parts
Found this hope on a whim
It broke me open and I looked in
Music didn’t raise me but it saved me every time
