[Verse 1] I've been standing at your door Flowers in my hand, knocking like before You look right through me, like I'm not even there I'm giving everything, and you're giving me a stare I replay every word, wondering what I did But maybe this ain't about me, maybe it never is [Verse 2] I see the way you love me, I feel it every day But something pulls me backwards every time I want to stay It's like there's a wall inside me I can't climb Built from all the leaving, from a long time I don't want to push you away I just learned too young that love don't stay [Pre-Chorus] Wait, I think I see it now This isn't us, this is the wound somehow The past keeps speaking where the present ought to be What if we faced it, you and me [Chorus] It's not about you, it's not about me It's about the pain we carried before we were we Old wounds don't heal by themselves in the dark But they can't survive the light of two open hearts So let's name it, let's face it, let's lay it down No more letting yesterday run our now We didn't come this far to let the past win Baby, this is where the healing begins [Verse 1] I've been standing at your door Flowers in my hand, knocking like before You look right through me, like I'm not even there I'm giving everything, and you're giving me a stare I replay every word, wondering what I did But maybe this ain't about me, maybe it never is [Chorus] It's not about you, it's not about me It's about the pain we carried before we were we Old wounds don't heal by themselves in the dark But they can't survive the light of two open hearts So let's name it, let's face it, let's lay it down No more letting yesterday run our now We didn't come this far to let the past win Baby, this is where the healing begins [Bridge] I'm not your father You're not my past We don't have to keep reliving What was never meant to last I see you for you You see me for me That's enough to start over That's enough to be free [Chorus] It's not about you, it's not about me It's about the pain we carried before we were we Old wounds don't heal by themselves in the dark But they can't survive the light of two open hearts So we named it, we faced it, we laid it down No more letting yesterday run our now We didn't come this far to let the past win Baby, this is where the healing begins [Outro] Healing begins, healing begins Not alone, but together Not by force, but by choice Not in silence, but with voice You are not your wound And neither am I We are two people choosing To let love try
