Verse 1
I keep old voices in my glove box
They rattle when the road gets rough
Every promise I tried to keep
Turned into something I could not touch
I learned goodbyes before hellos
Like a habit I never quit
I leave the lights on in empty rooms
So nobody sees me split
Pre-Hook
I do not hate the distance
I hate the pattern
Hook
Everybody leaves different
Some walk quiet some burn the door
Some take years out of a single sentence
And call it closure
I do not fall I am rewritten
Every time I choose to go
Everybody leaves different
But nobody leaves whole
Verse 2
There is a street that still says my name
Like it expects me to explain
Why I kept changing the locks on my life
But never fixed the frame
I pack regrets in the bottom drawer
With clothes I do not wear
Every mile just makes it clearer
That I was always halfway there
Pre-Hook
I am not afraid of endings
I am afraid of repeats
Hook
Everybody leaves different
Some carry blame like a loaded coat
Some say nothing but look back
Like the truth might float
I do not break I am edited
While acting like I am fine
Everybody leaves different
But nobody leaves on time
Bridge
Say my name without apology
Say it like it is not a crime
Say it like you still believe
I was more than borrowed time
If leaving is a kind of art
Then I was born unfinished
I keep painting over endings
Like they never happened
Final Hook
Everybody leaves different
Some become strangers in their own town
Some wear memories like medals
That they never put down
I do not heal I relocate
Every part I outgrow
Everybody leaves different
So I am learning how to go
