Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You slammed the door

I stared it down

Felt every crack

On the way to the ground

I lit a match

Just to watch myself breathe

Guess I had to lose you

To stop losing me

[Chorus]

I’m not afraid of the pain

Let it cut

Let it claim what it needs from me

I’m not afraid of the end

But I’m hanging on hard to this in-between

You were the better half of me

Now I’m learning who the rest can be

I’m not scared of death

I just owe this life

So I bleed

I break

But I live it right

[Verse 2]

Your ghost still sleeps

On the right side of my bed

I pour one drink

Then talk you out of my head

I trace my scars

Like they’re maps I can read

Every line says “stay”

Every line says “leave”

[Chorus]

I’m not afraid of the pain

Let it cut

Let it claim what it needs from me

I’m not afraid of the end

But I’m hanging on hard to this in-between

You were the better half of me

Now I’m finding out what’s underneath

I’m not scared of death

I just owe this life

So I bleed

I break

But I live it right

[Bridge]

I toast our ruin

Like it’s a crown on my head (oh)

Kissing the future

With the past in my bed

If this is the fire

Then I’ll walk through the heat

I buried “us”

Just to dig up “me” (yeah)

[Chorus]

I’m not afraid of the pain

Let it cut

Let it carve out the truth in me

I’m not afraid of the end

But I’ll spend every breath on this in-between

You were the better half of me

Now the best of me is breaking free

I’m not scared of death

I just owe this life

So I bleed

I break

But I live it right

Yeah

I bleed

I break

But I live this life

Prompt

Sensual rock, soft rock, rock. Becoming the best version of myself when losing the better half of me(My Ex). Something about me not being scared of pain or death but respects life and is living it
