[Verse 1]
You said forever on a Tuesday
I packed my bags that Friday night
All of your sweaters in a suitcase
All of my tears in the porch light
I lost myself in your shadows
Couldn’t hear my own name
Through you I found my reflection
Walking out of your frame
[Chorus]
My heart was broken
But I’m free at last
Free at last
Breathing in truth I never had
Through you I learned my inner
Now I won’t run back
Won’t run back
It’s hard accepting all that time I stayed
But I’m free at last
Yeah
I’m free at last (oh)
[Verse 2]
I used to shrink when you’d get louder
Fold my dreams
Tuck them away
Now I drink coffee in the quiet
Leave the mugs out
Take up space
I still replay all the evenings
All the “sorry” I forgave
But every scar is a doorway
To the woman that I saved
[Chorus]
My heart was broken
But I’m free at last
Free at last
Breathing in truth I never had
Through you I learned my inner
Now I won’t run back
Won’t run back
It’s hard accepting all that time I stayed
But I’m free at last
Yeah
I’m free at last (oh-woah)
[Bridge]
I thought love meant staying
Even when I disappeared
Now I’m done explaining
Every doubt
Every fear
Thank you for the lesson
You were never meant to last
You were just the mirror
I had to crack to see my past
[Chorus]
My heart was broken
But I’m free at last
Free at last
Walking in light I never had
Through you I learned my inner
Now I won’t run back
Won’t run back
It’s hard accepting all that time I stayed
But I’m free at last
Yeah
I’m free at last (free at last)
