Lyrics
10:14 on the RTA Red Line, humming.
The crisp edge of the paper cuts into my thumb.
Two tickets printed out, a future I've been strumming,
A melody I play until my fingers go numb.
I'm tracing the seam of the city through the glass,
Steel yards breathing plumes against the dark.
[Chorus]
I'm cutting the cloth for a future you haven't seen,
Got the tailor's chalk out, redrawing the whole routine.
This is the high-stakes pressure, the beautiful and the mean,
Tonight I'm showing you the places we could have been.
[Verse 2]
Last Tuesday you mumbled, "Let's not over-plan,"
With the blueprints for the new tower spread across your hand.
And I just nodded, let the quiet moment stand,
But a different kind of architecture's in demand.
I'm tired of mending the same old rips and tears,
Ready for a fabric that can last a hundred years.
[Chorus]
I'm cutting the cloth for a future you haven't seen,
Got the tailor's chalk out, redrawing the whole routine.
This is the high-stakes pressure, the beautiful and the mean,
Tonight I'm showing you the places we could have been.
[Bridge]
What if the grain of the cloth runs the other way?
What if your measured world doesn't have room to play?
What if this brand new pattern just makes you want to stray?
[Chorus]
I'm cutting the cloth for a future you haven't seen,
Got the tailor's chalk out, redrawing the whole routine.
This is the high-stakes pressure, the beautiful and the mean,
Tonight I'm showing you the places we could have been.
(Music fades to silence for 4 seconds)
[Coda]
(Sound of a key turning in a lock)
Okay. Deep breath.
