VERSE 1 You came into a house that needed light Tiny heart kicking back the night They dropped you in my arms like lightning Love hit fast left scars for life Said you’re stuck with me kid Like a promise carved into bone You grew up in my shadow and sunlight Thinking my voice was always home PRE-CHORUS Time pulled us in opposite ways You ran ahead I learned how to fade CHORUS I don’t know what cracked in your laughter When soft hands learned to fight Don’t know where that barefoot boy went But I see him every time you bite You built your walls like love was weather Like love was something to survive But I’m still that aunt in the doorway You’re stuck with me kid Yeah I’m stuck on your life VERSE 2 Hospital lights carved prayers in skin Crohn’s wrote scripture through bone and sin They gave me peace in paper bottles Numb started feeling just like home You grew up while I learned to vanish You learned to stand while I learned to fade I said words I’d burn if fire erased them You watched me flicker like a porch in rain PRE-CHORUS 2 Did you see me as a warning sign Or just another adult who walked away CHORUS BRIDGE I got addicted trying not to die You got addicted just to feel alive I broke in silence you broke people Why does hate feel clearer than love If I stayed sober stayed loud stayed there Would you still be this angry this hard Or was this storm written into your bones And I blame myself just to aim the scar FINAL CHORUS I don’t know what cracked in your laughter But I hope you remember who you were Don’t know where that barefoot boy went But I set his place like he might return Burn every letter curse every name Say this family never mattered in your life But I’m still that aunt in the doorway You’re stuck with me kid And I meant it for life OUTRO If you hit bottom and look for the porch light I’ll still be here broken angry loving anyway You’re still stuck with me kid Yeah I’m still stuck loving you
