[Verse 1]
I packed my fear in a paper-thin box
Left it beside the old kitchen clock
Every harsh word had a place in my skin
I wore a smile just to keep it all in
[Pre-Chorus]
Then a wild red flag cut across the blue
A laughing crew came crashing through
[Chorus]
You found me where I was falling apart
Pulled every chain from around my heart
With open hands and a promise to stay
You showed me there was another way
I’m not the weapon they wanted me to be
I’m more than the voice that kept blaming me
When the whole world said, “Run,” you said, “Come along”
Straw-hat hearts turned my breaking into song
[Verse 2]
A cook set a plate by the edge of the chair
A swordsman stood guard like he’d always been there
A navigator mapped a road out of doubt
A quiet doctor helped the sickness out
[Pre-Chorus]
A sniper laughed at the fear in my chest
An archaeologist said, “You deserve your rest”
[Chorus]
You found me where I was falling apart
Pulled every chain from around my heart
With open hands and a promise to stay
You showed me there was another way
I’m not the weapon they wanted me to be
I’m more than the voice that kept blaming me
When the whole world said, “Run,” you said, “Come along”
Straw-hat hearts turned my breaking into song
[Bridge]
I faced the mirror, but I wasn’t alone
The face looking back could finally come home
No more punishment dressed up as truth
No more surrendering all of my youth
[Final Chorus]
You found me where I was falling apart
Pulled every chain from around my heart
With open hands and a promise to stay
You showed me there was another way
Now I’ll fight for the ones who are lost in the storm
Keep a place at our table, keep the fire warm
If I ever forget who I’m meant to become
I’ll hear your laughter and I’ll know where I’m from
[Outro]
The sea keeps calling, the horizon is wide
I’m not alone with my crew by my side
