Lyrics

[Verse 1] I tossed around like sea glass Near rounded out my edges I'll feel better when the headaches go away I've got a scar across my forehead Turning purple in the cold From a [?] from a move I was sixteen, afraid, I turned away [Pre-Chorus] I'm working, babyface Out of Mid-South in the 80s I kept a blade hidden in my wrist tape [Chorus] I think I'm growing into someone you could trust I wanna shoulder the weight 'til my back breaks I wanna run 'til my lungs give up If I could manage not to fuck this up If I could manage not to fuck this up I think enough is enough [Verse 2] Hidden in the tall grass in the naked light of day I pull my past self in the ground I've been dancing on the grave I'm not the person that I was then, I'm tearing him away I was bitter, I was careless I was nineteen and afraid [Pre-Chorus 2] But you deserve more from me I don't know why I would say those things But you deserve more from me And I'm trying every day [Chorus] I think I'm growing into someone you could trust I wanna shoulder the weight 'til my back breaks I wanna run 'til my lungs give up If I could manage not to fuck this up If I could manage not to fuck this up I think enough is enough [Bridge] You left me walkin' in circles You were a shot in the dark You were the baby teeth I buried You were the sounds of distant cars You left me walkin' in circles You were a shot in the dark You were the banner that sets no one That I tattooed across my heart You left me walking in circles (You left me walking in circles) You were a shot in the dark (You were a shot in the dark) You scattered like ashes across every song that I write You were the light pollution starts [Chorus] I think I'm growing into someone you could trust I wanna shoulder the weight until my back breaks I wanna run 'til my lungs give up If I can manage not to fuck this up If I can manage not to fuck this up Enough is enough
