[Verse 1]
Saw your car parked out on the edge of the street
And for a second, I forgot how to move my feet
It’s been a year, but the color is still the same
I almost reached out just to whisper your name
But the air got thin, and the lights started to fade
Looking at the mess of the choices we made
[Chorus]
I don’t know where we went wrong
Why did we start this fight?
But I’m gonna take it back, yeah…
Caught in the wire, walking through the ash of a dead-end fire
Your echo’s in the hallway, a blur in the white pane glass
Watching all the seasons and our memories pass
It’s a happy kind of hurt. It’s a beautiful wreck
With your hands so heavy ‘round the back of my neck
Yeah, I’m spinning in the kitchen, losing my damn breath
Chasing every shadow to the point of death
I’m fine, I’m okay, I’m a liar at best
With a hundred different versions of you in my damn chest
But I’m gonna take it back, yeah…
[Verse 2]
I heard you moved out to the coast or the city
I heard you’re doing well, and the view is quite pretty
I’m still in the room where we left all the words we said
And I’m still singing to the sky and the cold weather birds
Isn’t it quite strange how the time just moves and bends?
How we went from a life to just old friends
[Bridge]
So tell me how I’m supposed to let you go
When every little thing still feels like home
And I’m still screaming your NAAAAME to the sky above
Trying to outrun what we were
[Chorus]
I don’t know where we went wrong
Why did we start this fight?
But I’m gonna take it back, yeah…
It’s a happy kind of hurt, a beautiful wreck
With your hands so heavy ‘round the back of my neck
I’m fine, I’m okay, I’m a liar at best
But I’m gonna take it back, yeah…
[Outro]
And it’s kinda hard to move on
When you were my everything
Even though you broke my heart
But I don’t know why you did
The things you did to me, so…
