The same deep waters

The Same Deep Water
(Verse 1)
I see you standing at the station, heavy in the coat you wore
Tracing lines of a map that doesn’t lead back anymore
You speak in a rhythm that I’m trying to learn
While I’m holding a bridge that I’m praying won't burn
We’re two different stories written in the same ink
Standing on a ledge, trying not to blink.
(Chorus)
We aren't just colors on a flag or lines upon a page
We’re the quiet breath of mercy in a loud and crowded age
Your mother’s prayer is the song my father hummed
Two different heartbeats, but the same ancient drum
Yeah, the borders are tall, but the sky is a mirror
If we just stop screaming, the whisper gets clearer.
(Verse 2)
You’ve got dust on your boots from a road I’ll never walk
I’ve got ghosts in my kitchen that I still can’t make talk
But when the screen goes dark and the lights lose their glow
We’re just shivering kids with nowhere to go
You bleed like I bleed, in a shade of deep red
Counting the stars from a different-shaped bed.
(Bridge)
It’s not a compromise, it’s a conversation
It’s the holy space between every nation
It’s the "I see you," it’s the "I’m here too"
The only thing left that is actually true.
