Above the Below

VERSE 1 I kept the receipts of every goodbye Folded them small so they’d fit in my mind You said forever like it was a trend Wore it a week then you let it end I used to measure my worth in your tone Wait for your call like a debt I was owed Now I can sit with the ache in my chest Not every loss is a failure to fix HOOK I don’t need reasons anymore I let it be what it was CHORUS I take it as it comes Every cut taught me how to become I take it as it comes Even the damage did more than it took I take it as it comes I’m not the same, but I’m good with who I was I take it as it comes Nothing I lost is a thing I should mourn VERSE 2 You were a chapter I don’t reread Still I can say that you gave something to me I learned the shape of a boundary line Where I end and where you don’t get to decide I used to carry the blame like a coat Heavy in summer, but I never let go Now I can leave it behind at the door I don’t need justice to even the score HOOK I don’t rewrite what it meant I let it stay where it went CHORUS I take it as it comes Every cut taught me how to become I take it as it comes Even the damage did more than it took I take it as it comes I’m not the same, but I’m good with who I was I take it as it comes Nothing I lost is a thing I should mourn BRIDGE I don’t forgive you for you I just refuse to carry it through It’s not about right or wrong I’m just done dragging it along HOOK I don’t need reasons anymore I let it be what it was CHORUS I take it as it comes Every cut taught me how to become I take it as it comes Even the damage did more than it took I take it as it comes I’m not the same, but I’m good with who I was I take it as it comes Nothing I lost is a thing I should mourn
