Walking Away

[Verse 1] Packed my doubt in a small black bag Left your key on the kitchen chair Coffee stain on your favorite mug Still warm air But the room feels bare [Pre-Chorus] You said "love" like it solved everything I heard "stay" like a closing door My shadow’s halfway down the hallway Heart already on the floor [Chorus] I’m walking away From the version of me that you needed Walking away From the war you called "home" when you pleaded Every step hurts But I’m lighter with every mistake I erase I’m walking I’m walking away [Solo] [Verse 2] All our plans on a crumpled list Folded tight in my faded jeans I could stay Keep chasing our ghosts Or breathe deep Let the sky come clean [Pre-Chorus] You said "change" like it meant "come back" I heard "sorry" like a worn-out line I gave years trying to fix your storms Now I’m choosing sun this time [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Maybe someday we’ll meet downtown Two strangers Same old town You’ll ask if I ever think of you I’ll smile Say "yeah… once I made it through" [Chorus]
