You said nothing about talking
even though I asked you for months
you just decided it up in your head
then you let me know it all at once
it hit me like a steam train I could see a mile away
But part of me was part relieved when I fell apart that day


Because
part of me was broken
part of me broke open
something in me froze then
And something else shook free
I packed up all those pieces
and went looking for relief
with a suitcase full of faith
and the music calling me

it’s been more than a year now
in the desert on my own
I cut my hair, I bought new dresses
And I’m still learning to live alone
every now and then it calls my name
a memory reminds me that nothing is the same

As when
part of me was broken
part of me broke open
something in me froze then
And something else shook free
I packed up all those pieces
and went looking for relief
with a suitcase full of faith
and the music calling me

I wouldn’t wish this on a friend or enemy
But I also know I wouldn’t wanna go
back to how it used to be
How I used to be

before
part of me was broken
part of me broke open
something in me froze then
something else shook free
I packed up all those pieces
and went looking for relief
with a suitcase full of faith
and the music calling me

because
part of me was broken
part of me broke open
something in me froze then
something else shook free
I packed up all those pieces
and went looking for relief
with a suitcase full of faith
and the music calling me
Got a suitcase full of faith
And the music’s calling me
