Leaving My Shadow

[Verse 1] Suitcase by the screen door Dust on all these frames Every little memory Keeps calling out my name Half a tank of quiet Maps marked in my mind One foot in the driveway One breath from cutting ties [Chorus] I’m moving on Heading out Leave the past behind me now Rearview full of worn-out doubts They’re getting smaller as I drive I’m moving on Heading out Heart is heavy But it’s mine Every mile I’m losing weight As I leave our shadow behind [Verse 2] Old town in the mirror Shrinking with each turn All the words we never said Still flicker Still burn Radio on whisper Wind inside my sleeves I’m learning how to miss you Without forgetting me [Chorus] I’m moving on Heading out Leave the past behind me now Rearview full of worn-out doubts They’re getting smaller as I drive I’m moving on Heading out Heart is heavy But it’s mine Every mile I’m losing weight As I leave our shadow behind [Bridge] Maybe I’ll break On some roadside at dawn (oh) But better to break Than stay halfway gone If I look back It’s just to say goodbye Then I face the open sky [Chorus] I’m moving on Heading out Leave the past behind me now Rearview full of worn-out doubts They’re getting smaller as I drive I’m moving on Heading out Heart is heavy But it’s mine Every mile I’m losing weight As I leave our shadow behind
