[Verse 1] I wore your smile to the door It fit too well, too neat Your name still on the label Your pulse under my feet I learned the shape of “sorry” From a voice I could not trust A copy in the hallway With gold dust on the dust [Pre-Chorus] Tell me what I am If I move like you Tell me what I am When the mirror moves too [Chorus] Borrowed face, borrowed face I can wear it all day (borrowed face) Borrowed face, borrowed face But it slips when you say my name Borrowed face, borrowed face I’m the same, I’m the same No one home behind the glass Just a hand on the frame [Verse 2] I watched the crowd believe me When I spoke in your tone They clapped for something empty And called it flesh and bone I kept your cracked reflection In my pocket, cold and small Every room I enter Still feels like borrowing it all [Pre-Chorus] Tell me what I am If I move like you Tell me what I am When the mirror moves too [Chorus] Borrowed face, borrowed face I can wear it all day (borrowed face) Borrowed face, borrowed face But it slips when you say my name Borrowed face, borrowed face I’m the same, I’m the same No one home behind the glass Just a hand on the frame [Bridge] If I break, what stays? If I change, who’s gone? I keep hearing my own steps But they sound like a song [Break] One more layer off One more lie in place Now I see the outline Of the face I chased [Final Chorus] Borrowed face, borrowed face I can wear it all day (borrowed face) Borrowed face, borrowed face But it slips when you say my name Borrowed face, borrowed face I’m the same, I’m the same No one home behind the glass Just a hand on the frame
