[Verse 1]
You drew those lines on the sand
Thought you knew where you stand
But the road starts slipping
Right under your feet
You chase a star with a name
Every border feels the same
Till the wind starts ripping
Your papers to the sea
[Chorus]
The map is the wilderness (ohhh)
Let it tear
Let it twist
Let it spin
Certainty’s the mirage that makes you miss
Being lost is where you truly begin
The map is the wilderness (yeah yeah)
Every turn
Every blur
Every spin
When you’re walking with nothing but emptiness
Being lost is where you finally begin
[Verse 2]
There’s a cloth over your sight
Painting shadows into light
Every blur
Every fracture
Is carving how you see
You’re reaching out through the haze
But the haze is giving shape
What obscures every answer
Is the hand that holds the key
[Chorus]
The veil is the vision (ohhh)
Every shadow teaching how to see
What obscures you is the quiet incision
Cutting holes in the old story
The map is the wilderness (yeah yeah)
Let it burn
Let it bend in the wind
Certainty is the cage
The cold caress
Being lost is where you truly begin
[Bridge]
Step off the edge of the line
Let the wrong roads wind
Every question climbing
Like smoke into the sky
If you never fall through
How you gonna break through?
Every “where am I?”
Is your first true reply
[Chorus]
The map is the wilderness (ohhh)
Let it fade
Let it fade
Let it spin
Certainty’s the mirage that makes you miss
Being lost is where you truly begin
The veil is the vision (yeah yeah)
Every blur drawing new geometry
What obscures you is the quiet incision
Cutting doors in your reality
