Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Six years old
Police tape on the front porch steps
Blue and red
Painting shadows on the swing they left
One suitcase
And a birthday card I never opened
Small backpack
Stuffed with clothes and every broken token
[Chorus]
I wear the past like patches on my jacket
Torn and frayed but holding me together
Every scar I carry like a promise
I walked through hell and came out better
Yeah the fire tried to turn my heart to stone
But I built a life from what was overthrown
I’m not that kid stuck screaming in that room
I learned to bloom
From all the ruin
[Verse 2]
Seventeen
We were talking about leaving town
One bad night
Left her picture in the lost-and-found
Empty chair
At a table that we used to crowd
Silent phone
But her laugh is still the loudest sound
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I still set three plates when I’m eating cheap ramen
Still save old seats at the movies like they’re coming
I talk out loud in the car
Like they’re riding shotgun
“Look at me now
Look at me now
I didn’t disappear when you were gone”
[Chorus]
