My Own Handwriting

[Verse 1]
You measure me in neat little columns
I spill past every line you drew
I wear my laugh at full volume
And keep the parts you can't review

[Pre-Chorus]
Every odd angle, every bright mistake
Turns into a color I can make

[Chorus]
This is my name, in my own handwriting
All of my colors, alive and colliding
I won't cut a piece away to fit your frame
I get to choose what I become, what I claim

[Verse 2]
My voice can turn from hush to thunder
My mind takes roads that twist and flare
I used to call that being different
Now I call it mine, and wear it there

[Pre-Chorus]
Every strange rhythm has a pulse to keep
Every seed has its own way to leap

[Chorus]
This is my name, in my own handwriting
All of my colors, alive and colliding
I won't cut a piece away to fit your frame
I get to choose what I become, what I claim

[Bridge]
Let the bright parts show
Let the rough parts stay
I am not a draft
I am here this way

[Final Chorus]
This is my name, in my own handwriting
All of my colors, alive and colliding
I won't cut a piece away to fit your frame
I get to choose what I become, what I claim

[Outro]
Every piece of me belongs
