[Verse 1] You left your jacket on the kitchen chair One sleeve folded like you still lived there I found your note beneath the coffee tin Three careful words that let the cold rush in [Pre-Chorus] I wore your goodbye like a chain for weeks Then heard my own voice when I tried to speak [Chorus] I’m not the wreckage you walked away from I’m the match, I’m the morning, I’m the blood in my lungs Every crack in my chest let the hard truth through I lost what I loved, but I won’t lose me to you I won’t lose me to you [Verse 2] Your photograph stayed by the bedroom door I turned it face down, then I swept the floor The rent was late and the sink still leaked But I made a plan before the end of the week [Pre-Chorus] No miracle came, no hand reached down I built my balance on unsteady ground [Chorus] I’m not the wreckage you walked away from I’m the match, I’m the morning, I’m the blood in my lungs Every crack in my chest let the hard truth through I lost what I loved, but I won’t lose me to you I won’t lose me to you [Bridge] Let the old keys rust in the bottom drawer I know what I’m fighting for Not your apology, not your name Just the person I was before the blame [Final Chorus] I’m not the wreckage you walked away from I’m the match, I’m the morning, I’m the blood in my lungs Every scar on my heart is a map I can use I lost what I loved, but I chose what is true I won’t lose me to you No, I won’t lose me to you [Outro] The chair is empty, the room is mine I’m still here, and I’m doing fine
