Leave Some Paint on the Walls

[Verse 1]
You held the door when I was running late
You wrote my name beside a borrowed plate
A little courage passed from hand to hand
Now someone else is braver than they planned

[Pre-Chorus]
We don't get to choose what time will keep
But kindness takes a root too deep

[Chorus]
Leave some paint on the walls
Leave your mark in the rooms where somebody stands tall
Every small act, every call
Let it live in the lives that you helped along
Leave some paint on the walls
We were never made to be perfect at all
If a heart feels less alone
Then you left something good when you go

[Verse 2]
The crooked shelf you built still holds the books
The old joke lands with just the way you look
A song you made is humming down the hall
The best things aren't the polished things at all

[Pre-Chorus]
We don't get to choose what time will keep
But kindness takes a root too deep

[Chorus]
Leave some paint on the walls
Leave your mark in the rooms where somebody stands tall
Every small act, every call
Let it live in the lives that you helped along
Leave some paint on the walls
We were never made to be perfect at all
If a heart feels less alone
Then you left something good when you go

[Bridge]
Let the edges show
Let the colors run
What we give away
Keeps moving on
One more hand reached out
One more door held wide
A thousand little traces
Growing side by side

[Final Chorus]
Leave some paint on the walls
Leave your mark in the rooms where somebody stands tall
Every small act, every call
Let it live in the lives that you helped along
Leave some paint on the walls
We were never made to be perfect at all
If a heart feels less alone
Then you left something good when you go

[Outro]
Leave some paint on the walls
Leave some paint on the walls
