Ghost Story I Outgrew

V6

You thought you wrote my ending You thought I’d beg you to stay But I packed up all your memories Left them back in yesterday You’re the echo in an empty room That I don’t visit anymore I walked out of that heartbreak house And I’m already past the door I’m just protecting my peace If you hurt me I leave I’ll disappear from your phone Like we never believed You’re the ghost story I outgrew I’m the one who got away You’re the past I have forgotten and forgave I cut the chains Don’t feel sore I’ve never been this happy before I am beautiful Independent And with God I am strong So I’m gone I’m gone I’m gone Used to wear your words like shackles Every doubt you had I’d bleed Now your name is just a puzzle piece From a life I didn’t need See my footprints in the driveway Rain is washing out your name You’re the chapter that I closed for good I don’t carry all that blame I’m not your misery Not your mistake I woke up from that bad dream wide awake [crescendo Full band in] Got my faith Got my fire Got my song You were never where my heart belonged I’m just protecting my peace If you hurt me I leave I’ll disappear from your phone Like we never believed You’re the ghost story I outgrew I’m the one who got away You’re the past I have forgotten and forgave I cut the chains Don’t feel sore I’ve never been this happy before I am beautiful Independent And with God I am strong So I’m gone I’m gone I’m gone
