Lyrics

I left a piece of me in every town I’ve been
Polaroids and parking lots, drinking my cheap gin
The past will often call, it knows me too well
But I don’t owe it answers, I don’t owe it hell
I’ve run through fire just to prove I could
Burned down the good things I misunderstood
But I’m learning the art of letting go
Even if the letting’s slow
And I’ve been the villain
I’ve been the fool
Writing apologies I’ll never use
Only the future can save me now
Not the could-have-beens or the why-and-how
I’ve made peace with my broken pieces
Learned from every scar that teaches
If love is a risk, I’ll take it somehow
Only the future can
Save me now
I see my shadow in the rearview light
A younger me still putting up a fight
I want to tell them: you did your best
Some lessons hurt, but they’re still blessings, I guess
The nights I cried, I thought I’d drowned
But I was just waiting to be found
Now I wear my pain like jewellery
It glitters when it shouldn’t, but it’s part of me
And I’ve been the heartbreak
I’ve been the proof
That healing starts when you learn to move
Only the future can save me now
Not the could-have-beens or the why-and-how
I’ve made peace with my broken pieces
Learned from every scar that teaches
If love is a risk, I’ll take it somehow
Only the future can
Save me now
Make peace with your broken pieces
Learn from your ravages
The heart redeems what pain releases
Through all its passages
Maybe I’m still here
(Oooh)
But maybe I’m still here
(Oooh)
But maybe I’m still here
(Oooh)
But maybe I’m still here
(Oooh)
Only the future can save me now
(Save me now)
Not the ghosts that time won’t allow
I’ve made peace with my broken pieces
Learned from every scar that teaches
If love is a risk, I’ll take it somehow
(Somehow)
Only the future can
Save me now
So I’ll toast to the endings
To the chapters I burned down
I can’t change where I’ve been
But I can choose where I’m bound
Only the future, only the future now
