Moving On

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I left the spare key on the kitchen tile Packed two boxes and a borrowed smile dad said, “Call when you get settled in,” I said, “I will” Then watched our driveway disappear uphill The first night, I ate cheesecake factory on the floor deliveredd from a good friend named sam, order alize grape on doordash No one asking when I’d be back again No map, no plan, but I could finally begin [Pre-Chorus] I was scared of the quiet Till I heard my own name in it Funny how a little distance Makes the truth come into focus [Chorus] I moved out, I’m moving on Turned the page and left the old address gone Got my whole life in the backseat And a new song underneath me I don’t need to know where this goes I just know I’m not going home I moved out, I’m moving on And it feels like I’ve been waiting all along [Verse 2] Found a coffee place beneath my stairs Met a girl with silver rings and purple hair She said, “You look like someone breaking free” I said, “Maybe that’s exactly what you see” Now I walk past that familiar street With a different kind of steady in my feet I can miss it without wanting it back Love the people, lose the old track [Pre-Chorus] I was scared of the silence Now I fill it when I need it Every wrong turn taught me something Every mile made me believe it [Chorus] I moved out, I’m moving on Turned the page and left the old address gone Got my whole life in the backseat And a new song underneath me I don’t need to know where this goes I just know I’m not going home I moved out, I’m moving on And it feels like I’ve been waiting all along [Bridge] If you see me, don’t pull me backward I’m not running, I’m just getting farther There’s a version of me in that old room But she’s not the one I’m bringing with me soon [Final Chorus] I moved out, I’m moving on Turned the page and left the old address gone Got my whole life in the backseat And a new world underneath me I don’t need to know where this goes I just know I’m not going home I moved out, I’m moving on Yeah, it feels like I’ve been waiting all along [Outro] Left the key, kept the lesson New address, no second-guessing Moved out, moving on
