[Verse 1]
Dancing on the edge of who I am
Between your world and mine, I take my stand
My heart beats like a drum across the sand
Ancient rhythms flowing through my hands
[Pre-Chorus]
They try to draw their lines around my soul
But baby, I'm too wild to be controlled
These hips don't lie, they tell my story true
Breaking every rule they want me to
[Chorus]
I'm the pulse at the border
Getting closer, getting warmer
Can't contain this wild disorder
Breaking free, I'm my own order
Feel the beat getting stronger
As I dance between the borders
Tonight I'm going further
'Cause baby, I'm a border runner
[Verse 2]
Silk and steel flow through my veins
Eastern fire, Western rain
Don't tell me where I should belong
'Cause every map you draw is wrong
My love speaks languages you'll never know
Crossing lines wherever I go
[Bridge]
My identity's not yours to keep
Not yours to hold, not yours to steal
Watch me dance between the worlds
Like a goddess breaking free
(Breaking free)
[Chorus]
I'm the pulse at the border
Getting closer, getting warmer
Can't contain this wild disorder
Breaking free, I'm my own order
Feel the beat getting stronger
As I dance between the borders
Tonight I'm going further
'Cause baby, I'm a border runner
[Outro]
Let the music take control
East to West, I claim it all
Dancing on the edge of dawn
Where I'm from is where I'm drawn
This is who I'm meant to be
Wild and beautiful and free
