lyrics

The sun hits the floor
it’s bare but it’s warm
tracing two years of footsteps
back to the door
and I close it
I crack a smile cause I’ll never be locked out again

My footsteps remember
like it was a test
every crack in the concrete
and the placement of step
to avoid them
I make into your car and I fall apart

I didn’t think I cared until it all came far too soon
my god it's true - I found a foundation in you
now future seems so scary, sanctuary stands removed
My old room - lay bare for someone new


and the highway seems different
this time around
with no weekend plans
or a returning route
to adhere to
seems every sign on the shoulder stares me down

I try to reflect
rationalize
how so much that I love
I am leaving behind
to the past now
Driving forward but it doesn’t feel that way.

I didn’t think I cared until it all came far too soon
my god it's true - I found a foundation in you
now future seems so scary, sanctuary stands removed
My old room - lay bare for someone new

I miss you.

the sun hits the floor
it’s bare but it’s warm
a lifetime in boxes
stacked at the door
of a new house
I crack a smile like I'm falling in love again.
