No Way Back

Paroles

[Verse 1] I left the key beside the plant Your note was folded where I’d stand The kettle clicked, the room stayed still I took the coat from off the sill [Pre-Chorus] Every mile erased a little Of the map I used to know If the door is closing softly I don’t need to hold it closed [Chorus] No way back, no borrowed reasons No more waiting for the seasons I can miss you, I can hurt Still put my feet beneath the dirt No way back, the road is burning Not from fear, but from returning To the person I became When I stopped rehearsing blame [Verse 2] At the station, platform four A paper cup rolled by the door I watched the town grow small and gray Then faced the glass and looked away [Pre-Chorus] There are names I won’t be calling There are debts I won’t repay What I lost can keep its distance What I’m building gets a day [Chorus] No way back, no borrowed reasons No more waiting for the seasons I can miss you, I can hurt Still put my feet beneath the dirt No way back, the road is burning Not from fear, but from returning To the person I became When I stopped rehearsing blame [Bridge] If I tremble, let me tremble If I break, I’ll break ahead There’s a life beyond the threshold And it’s calling me by name [Final Chorus] No way back, no borrowed reasons I am done with half-believing I can miss you, I can hurt Still put my feet beneath the dirt No way back, the road is burning Not from fear, but from returning To the person I became When I stopped rehearsing blame [Outro] The key is cooling in the dark I keep moving past the mark No way back
