(Verse 1)
I packed my bags in the quiet night,
No goodbye, just taillight light.
That house was filled with broken glass,
Every dream cut deep and didn’t last.
You found me shaking on the side of the road,
Heart like a map that had lost its code.
You said, “You don’t have to stay in pain,
Come with me, I’ll teach you rain.”
(Pre-Chorus)
I never knew love could feel this calm,
Like sunlight healing every scar.
Now I’m learning how to breathe again,
Leaving ashes where I’ve been.
(Chorus)
Out of the smoke, into your arms,
Away from the hurt, away from the harm.
You built me a home with open hands,
Taught me peace where war once stands.
I’m not running, I’m finally free,
I left that cage to be with you and me.
(Verse 2)
You don’t ask for things I can’t give,
You just want me here to live.
You see the cracks, but love me whole,
You don’t take—you feed my soul.
The ghosts still whisper, but they fade,
When you hold me, I’m not afraid.
The storm behind me starts to die,
And for the first time, so do I—
(The parts I had to say goodbye).
(Pre-Chorus)
Your voice is calm, your touch is grace,
You’re the quiet after the quake.
I never knew what safe could be,
Until your love unchained me.
(Chorus)
Out of the smoke, into your arms,
Away from the hurt, away from the harm.
You built me a home with open hands,
Taught me peace where war once stands.
I’m not running, I’m finally free,
I left that cage to be with you and me.
(Bridge)
Now I don’t flinch when someone stays,
I don’t hide when love behaves.
You show me truth without control,
And I’m learning how to take it slow.
(Final Chorus)
Out of the smoke, into your arms,
You’re the calm inside my storm.
I left the dark to feel the dawn,
And now my heart is moving on.
I’m not running, I’m finally free—
I left that cage to be with you and me.
