Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Left my life in Tennessee Packed it all in a U-Haul prayer Chased your sun to California Thought I'd find forever there You were sayin' I was crazy Every time I called it out You were busy buildin' secrets While I was buildin' us a house [Chorus] You totaled my Camry on the 10 But baby that ain't how you broke me You crashed every bit of who I am ‘Til the mirror wouldn't even know me I died for you a thousand times You just watched me fade to thin air Guess I never mattered much to you And I hate me more for ever thinkin' you cared [Verse 2] You were flirtin' in the barlight Callin' it "just in my head" Turned my doubts into a weapon Laid 'em with you in our bed You said I was hard to love So I tried to disappear Shrank myself to fit your story Lost my voice inside your fear [Chorus] You totaled my Camry on the 10 But baby that ain't how you broke me You crashed every bit of who I am ‘Til the mirror wouldn't even know me I died for you a thousand times You just watched me fade to thin air Guess I never mattered much to you And I hate me more for ever thinkin' you cared [Bridge] Now I'm standin' on this shoreline (hey) With your ghost still on my phone Every wave that hits my ankles Says, "Boy, you gotta walk home" I ain't askin' you to miss me Or to ever make it right I'm just learnin' how to love the man You taught me how to fight [Chorus] You totaled my Camry on the 10 But you ain't gonna be the end of me You crashed every bit of who I am But I'm pullin' my heart from the wreckage, finally I died for you a thousand times You still never even said a prayer Guess I never mattered much to you But I'm tryin' not to hate myself for ever thinkin' you cared

country, Modern country ballad with male vocals, warm pedal steel and fingerpicked acoustic. Verses stay intimate and low, brushed snare and soft organ pads. Chorus opens with big drums, stacked harmonies, and a bittersweet, driving groove. Final chorus strips back to voice, acoustic, and steel for a raw, confessional close.
