Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You counted the plates before you called us in
Saved the blue one for the child who always wins
I learned to fold my questions in my sleeves
And leave the best part of myself beneath the seat
[Pre-Chorus]
I knew which footsteps meant the room was safe
I knew which name would brighten up your face
[Chorus]
I was the quiet one beside the frame
Watching love arrive with somebody else’s name
You gave them the sunlight, left me with the hall
I grew up thinking less was all I was
But I am more than what you chose to see
More than the space you kept from me
[Verse 2]
At school I kept your family stories small
No one asked why I never made a call
I wore my sadness like a winter coat
Too heavy for a child, too familiar to let go
[Pre-Chorus]
I built a house from every word unsaid
And slept beneath a ceiling made of dread
[Chorus]
I was the quiet one beside the frame
Watching love arrive with somebody else’s name
You gave them the sunlight, left me with the hall
I grew up thinking less was all I was
But I am more than what you chose to see
More than the space you kept from me
[Bridge]
Now I set the table for my own two hands
Put the blue plate down because I can
No one gets to rank the hearts I bring
No one gets to tell me what I mean
[Final Chorus]
I was the quiet one, but I found my voice
Not the leftover, not the second choice
You gave them the sunlight, I became the dawn
I carried that child until the hurt was gone
I am more than what you chose to see
More than the space you kept from me
[Outro]
The room is mine, the door is open wide
I leave the old arithmetic outside
