Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Scared kid in a borrowed jacket
Backpack full of half-bright plans
Kept my hurt in private pockets
Laughed it off with shaking hands
I still see you in the mirror
Ghost behind my tired eyes
Trying on my older body
Like a shirt that doesn’t lie
[Chorus]
So goodbye to the old me
I can miss you and still leave
You were armor
You were anchor
You were also why I couldn’t breathe
I’ll remember what you gave me
But I won’t live in that debris
I’m not broken
Just unfolding
So goodbye to the old me
[Verse 2]
Every scar’s a secret heading
Notes I never meant to write
I keep reading them at midnight
Like it changes what they meant that night
But I’m learning how to linger
On the coffee
Not the stain
On the sunlight on the table
Not the echo of the rain
[Chorus]
So goodbye to the old me
I can miss you and still leave
You were armor
You were anchor
You were also why I couldn’t breathe
I’ll remember what you gave me
But I won’t live in that debris
I’m not broken
Just unfolding
So goodbye to the old me
[Bridge]
I don’t have to hate you to release you (oh)
I don’t have to heal you to be free
I can hold your hand and still walk forward
You’re a chapter
Not the whole of me
[Chorus]
So goodbye to the old me
I can miss you and still leave
You were armor
You were anchor
You were also why I couldn’t breathe
I’m still learning how to be here
Every heartbeat
Every breeze
I’m not perfect
But I’m present
So goodbye to the old me (goodbye)

Style
rock, Modern rock ballad that starts intimate with clean electric guitar and soft male vocals, then swells into a powerful, driving chorus with tight drums and bass. Second chorus hits harder with doubled vocals and gritty guitar overdrive, ending on a held chord and fading vocal ad-lib for a cathartic release.
