[Verse 1]
You said forever in my driveway
Tailgate throne, plastic crown
Sunburn names in the wet cement
Now they’re just cracks in the ground
I drive past where we used to be
Same blue sign, same old store
I still buy your favorite candy
Then leave it melting on the floor
[Chorus]
I’m emotionally scarred
From loving you too hard
You turned my open arms
Into a house of cards
I’m stitching up my heart
In the ruins of your yard
Yeah you left your mark
Now I’m emotionally scarred
[Verse 2]
Your hoodie hangs on my doorknob
Like it’s still waiting on you
Late-night shows in another language
Can’t translate what I’ve been through
Friends keep saying I should call them
I just scroll and fade away
Thumb on your name in my phone screen
Can’t press send, can’t erase
[Chorus]
I’m emotionally scarred
From loving you too hard
You turned my open arms
Into a house of cards
I’m stitching up my heart
In the ruins of your yard
Yeah you left your mark
Now I’m emotionally scarred
[Bridge]
Maybe one day I’ll dance again
To a song that don’t sound like us
Maybe one day I’ll trust again
Won’t flinch every time it’s called love (oh)
But tonight I trace every bruise
Like a map of where you’ve been
Trying to find a new road
That don’t circle back to then
[Chorus]
I’m emotionally scarred
From loving you too hard
You turned my open arms
Into a house of cards
I’m stitching up my heart
In the ruins of your yard
You were my brightest star
Now you’re just distant, far
Still you light the dark
‘Cause I’m emotionally scarred
