Different Names, Different

[Intro]
Different names, different doors
Still we breathe the same air

[Verse 1]
You drew a line across the table
Called it truth and called me wrong
I saw your hands begin to tremble
You had been carrying that long

I know the fear behind the anger
I know the wound beneath the blame
But every time we choose a target
We teach the hurt to speak our name

[Pre-Chorus]
Put down the stone
Open the gate
There is still time
Before it's too late

[Chorus]
We will not build our home from hate
We will not feed the hands that separate
Your life is not a threat to mine
Different roads can meet beneath one sky
Stand with me, leave room to breathe
No one is less, no one is beneath
Love is the ground we rise above
We choose each other, we choose love

[Verse 2]
The old words travel through the family
Like a debt nobody can pay
But I can stop them at my doorway
I can choose a different way

Bring your stories, bring your questions
Bring the parts you hide away
I won't ask you to become me
I will meet you where you stand today

[Pre-Chorus]
Open the gate
Unlearn the fear
The future starts
With both of us here

[Chorus]
We will not build our home from hate
We will not feed the hands that separate
Your life is not a threat to mine
Different roads can meet beneath one sky
Stand with me, leave room to breathe
No one is less, no one is beneath
Love is the ground we rise above
We choose each other, we choose love

[Bridge]
If your sorrow has a language
I will listen without pride
If my history makes you restless
You can ask me, I won't hide
No perfect hands, no spotless heroes
Just a promise made tonight
When the world demands division
We become the other side

[Breakdown]
One voice, one room
Many hearts, more truth
No wall, no throne
Nobody stands alone

[Final Chorus]
We will not build our home from hate
We will not feed the hands that separate
Your life is not a threat to mine
Different roads can meet beneath one sky
Stand with me, leave room to breathe
No one is less, no one is beneath
Love is the ground we rise above
We choose each other, we choose love

[Outro]
Different names, different doors
Still we breathe the same air
Make room, make room
There is enough love here
