Different Now

[Intro] I guess I was never meant to fit in Maybe that's why I never did Funny how the ones who know your name Are the ones who never know who you are [Verse 1] We were driving with the windows down Your feet up on my dashboard You were laughing at the stupid things I was doing just to hear it more Late nights turning into sunrise Your head resting on my chest You said, “I don't believe in forever” But you made it feel like our best [Pre-Chorus] I kept the ticket from that movie Folded in my winter coat Funny how a little paper Can weigh more than what you wrote [Chorus] I'm different now, different now I don't chase what won't come back around I can hear your name and let it fade Without turning every road into yesterday I'm different now, different now Found my feet on unfamiliar ground You can keep the version that you knew I had to lose myself to become someone new [Verse 2] Found your sweater in the laundry Still smelled faintly like your room I held it up against the doorway Then I put it in the donation bin by noon Took the long way past your corner Saw the bench beneath the tree There was a kid with a red kite laughing And for once it didn't feel like me [Pre-Chorus] I stopped explaining every silence Stopped rehearsing what I'd say Some goodbyes don't need a villain Some things simply lose their shape [Chorus] I'm different now, different now I don't chase what won't come back around I can hear your name and let it fade Without turning every road into yesterday I'm different now, different now Found my feet on unfamiliar ground You can keep the version that you knew I had to lose myself to become someone new [Bridge] If you see me at the old café Don't mistake the smile for regret I remember every mile we took I just don't live inside it yet And the boy who needed you to stay Was afraid of who he'd be alone Now I leave the porch light off at night And still find my way home [Final Chorus] I'm different now, different now Got a little more sky in my lungs somehow I can hear your name and let it fade Without turning every road into yesterday I'm different now, different now No hard feelings, no keeping score now You can keep the version that you knew I had to lose myself to become someone new [Outro] I guess I was never meant to fit in Maybe that's why I never did Funny how I finally know my name Now I know exactly who I am
