Lyrics
[Soft Felt Piano Intro]
a cup lay shattered by the sink
the morning stayed unbroken-soft.
[Verse 1]
I gathered every curved fragment, I remember.
the seam I painted turned to gold, still and tender.
the break became a brighter map, a quiet ember.
each edge found its patient home, now or never.
[Pre-Chorus]
the fall that split the glaze forgave me, pulling me under.
every crack a line of mercy, I'm not done, I'm not done.
[Chorus]
I glue the pieces slow.
the vessel holds its honest story, holding the sound.
what broke is now more beautiful, spinning me round.
I glue the pieces slow.
[Verse 2]
the morning stayed unbroken-soft, different weather.
the seam I painted turned to gold, we're still together.
each edge found its patient home, light as a feather.
I gathered every curved fragment, now or never.
[Chorus]
I glue the pieces slow.
the vessel holds its honest story, holding the sound.
what broke is now more beautiful, spinning me round.
I glue the pieces slow.
[Bridge]
Oh, I gathered every curved fragment, let it mend, let it mend.
each edge found its patient home, now I'm safe, now I'm safe.
the seam I painted turned to gold — I am whole, I am whole.
[Chorus]
I glue the pieces slow.
the vessel holds its honest story, holding the sound.
what broke is now more beautiful, spinning me round.
I glue the pieces slow.
[Outro]
a cup lay shattered by the sink...
I glue the pieces slow.
[Fade Out]
[End]
