Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I’ve been scrolling through my ghosts

Names I never really knew

All these faces in the glow

Still I only look for you

Kitchen floor at 2 a.m

Fridge light on

I’m wide awake

Reading texts I never sent

Drafts of things I couldn’t say

[Pre-Chorus]

How did I drown

In the shallow end

Heart on the floor

Phone in my hand

If you called right now

I’d break again

I’d break again (yeah)

[Chorus]

I’m tired of bleeding for the memory

Tired of carrying your shadow in my chest

You were the wound I kept reopening

Calling it love

Calling it love at its best

I gave you everything and then some

You gave me almost

You gave me halfway

I’m tired of bleeding for the memory

I’m walking out of that grave

[Verse 2]

You said

“Maybe we’re too young”

Then you kissed my shaking mouth

Left your sweater in my room

Like a flag you planted south

Every promise had an if

Every future came with terms

I kept shrinking just to fit

Now the fabric starts to burn

[Pre-Chorus]

How did I bend

Till the bones would creak

Talking in code

Every time we’d speak

If you came back now

I’d lose a week

I’d lose a week (oh)

[Chorus]

I’m tired of bleeding for the memory

Tired of carrying your shadow in my chest

You were the wound I kept reopening

Calling it love

Calling it love at its best

I gave you everything and then some

You gave me almost

You gave me halfway

I’m tired of bleeding for the memory

I’m walking out of that grave

[Bridge]

[beat pulls back

Vocal upfront]

This is the last time

I rehearse the scene

Where you come back

And you say what you mean

This is the last night

I sleep in your chain

I’m not your shelter

I’m not your blame

[build – drums rising

Bass swelling]

[Chorus]

I’m done with bleeding for the memory

Done letting you be the ruler of my head

You were the storm I stood in willingly

Calling it love while I froze to the edge

I gave you everything and then some

Now I want all of me back again

I’m done with bleeding for the memory

This is the part where I mend

[Chorus]

I’m done with bleeding for the memory

Hear my own name as it cuts through the noise (cuts through)

You were the cage that I called home to me

Now I step out and I find my own voice

I gave you everything and then some

Now I’m the one that I’m trying to save

I’m done with bleeding for the memory

I’m walking out of that grave (that grave)
