[Verse 1]
Born with a bang, a flash of light
Standing on two feet, learning wrong from right
Doing things first, not yet asking why
Mapping out the world, filling in the space
Striking up a balance between give and take
No reasons yet to fear making a mistake
[Chorus]
Opening a closed file
Poke around and stay a while
Break it into parts
And catalogue what’s in the heart
A latent state of agency
And worn-down naivety
Try to piece it back together
But this time make it better
[Verse 2]
Bathing in the night, pulling down the moon
Linger by the cars and singing our tunes (aah-aah)
Nothing behind us, nothing yet to lose
I’ll find a nеw thread in the shape of a cloud
I'm scarеd I’ve seen too much, I’m tightening the value
I’m pumping out the water, but I might just drown
[Chorus]
Opening a closed file
Poke around and stay a while
Break it into parts
And catalogue what’s in the heart
A latent state of agency
And worn-down naivety
If I piece it back together
Will this time be better
