[Verse 1]
I set out under a sky the color of old bruises
Compass spinning like a broken needle in the rain
Every sign I trusted pointed somewhere darker
Mud on my boots, blood in the veins

The map was written by someone who never walked it
Pages torn out by wind and time
I took the left when the right felt safer
Swallowed the dust of every climb

[Chorus]
The right way to wholeness
Is made of fateful detours
Wrong turnings carved in the bone
You bleed through the canyons
You crawl through the thorns
And somehow you still find home

[Verse 2]
I slept in the wreck of a promise I made
Woke up with strangers’ names on my tongue
Chased the light until it burned my eyes out
Then learned to walk by the songs that I’d sung

There was a girl with a smile like a loaded gun
A bottle that whispered the secrets of night
I followed both down into the underbelly
Where the wrong road felt almost right

[Chorus]
The right way to wholeness
Is made of fateful detours
Wrong turnings carved in the bone
You bleed through the canyons
You crawl through the thorns
And somehow you still find home

[Bridge]
Every dead-end had my name on the wall
Every circle I ran was a spiral down
The universe laughed while I cursed the compass
But the laughter was the only way out

I am the sum of the roads I never meant to take
The scars are the only true map I own

[Final Chorus]
The right way to wholeness
Is made of fateful detours
Wrong turnings carved in the bone
You bleed through the canyons
You crawl through the thorns
And somehow… you still find home
