Lyrics

They said you lose them one at a time
Under the pillow, a coin for the climb
Said grow up steady, said grow up fast
Said every baby tooth was built to not last
I kept the box. Small, cardboard, taped
Nobody has to know what I saved
Not because I'm stuck, not because I'm scared
Just because some rooms deserve to stay theirs
Milk teeth, baby teeth, gone but not spent
I traded the shape but I kept the intent
You can grow a foot taller and still keep the key
To the kid who once needed the light left on. That's me
Adult now, badge and a busy phone
But some Tuesdays the big house feels wrong-sized alone
So I dig out the box, just to hold it a while
Not going back. Just visiting the file
Milk teeth, baby teeth, gone but not spent
I traded the shape but I kept the intent
You can grow a foot taller and still keep the key
To the kid who once needed the light left on. That's me
Growing up isn't a door that locks
It's a hallway. I can still walk back down it
Just to look. Just to breathe
Then I close it soft and I go on
Milk teeth, baby teeth, gone but not spent
I traded the shape but I kept the intent
Ask me who I used to be, I'll show you the box
Then I'll grow the rest of the way up. Tonight, though — not yet
Tape still holds
