[Verse 1]
Used to live on burnout
Running toward every spark
Giving pieces of myself away
Till I was hollow in the dark
Now the mirror looks unfamiliar
Like somebody I outgrew
Heart beating like a warning light
But I still pushed straight through
[Pre-Chorus]
So I’m setting down the weight now
Leaving guilt beside the door
If it steals away my peace
I can’t carry it no more
[Chorus]
I’m saying goodbye to the person I was
Always running dry just to fill everyone up
Now I’m learning how to slow down
Learning how to breathe
My body’s screaming truths
I was too tired to see
Got to keep a little piece of me
Of me, of me
Yeah, I’m keeping a little piece of me
⸻
[Verse 2]
I mute every expectation
Every voice that says “don’t stop”
Trying to heal the parts of me
That never knew when to drop
Sunday sunlight through the window
No alarms, nowhere to be
If loving someone costs my soul
That love ain’t meant for me
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m letting silence hold me
Instead of pressure in my chest
If it doesn’t feel like healing
Then it isn’t worth what’s left
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m saying goodbye to the person I was
Always running dry just to fill everyone up
Now I’m learning how to slow down
Learning how to breathe
My body’s screaming truths
I was too tired to see
Got to keep a little piece of me
Of me, of me
Yeah, I’m keeping a little piece of me
⸻
[Bridge]
Yeah, I got tired of bleeding quietly
Smiling while it buried me alive
Now I hold myself like someone
I’m afraid to lose this time
