[Verse 1]
You packed your bags in a sentence
Dropped your key on the table
Looked away
Said you’d come back when you “fixed it”
You were gone before I knew what to say
[Pre-Chorus]
You called it fate
Said there’s a circle we’ll complete someday
But I’ve learned to hate
Every someday that gets in the way
[Chorus]
Pigs don’t fly and you don’t stay
You loved me in some other age
That’s what you said
Then walked away
Left your ghost in every frame
Promises can’t be kept in prison
So you cut the chain and ran from this one
You left us
And my life continued
But I still carry you
[Verse 2]
I still find notes in the cupboards
Little lists in a handwriting I know
You once swore “always” on a Sunday
Now “always” feels like a joke
[Pre-Chorus]
You blamed the stars
Said you were cracked before we ever met
I count the scars
Mine are the ones that never forget
[Chorus]
Pigs don’t fly and you don’t stay
You loved me in some other age
That’s what you said
Then walked away
Left your ghost in every frame
Promises can’t be kept in prison
So you cut the chain and ran from this one
You left us
And my life continued
But I still carry you
[Bridge]
Maybe in some other lifetime
You reach for my hand and you don’t let go (don’t let go)
Here in this one
You’re a past life
Living in the cracks of what I’ve outgrown (oh)
[Chorus]
Pigs don’t fly and you don’t stay
You loved me in some other age
That’s what you said
Then walked away
Left your ghost in every frame
Promises can’t be kept in prison
So you cut the chain and ran from this one
You left us
And my life continued
But I still
Still carry you
