You said nothing about talking
even though I asked you for months
you just decided it up in your head
and then you let me know it all at once

it hit me like a steam train I could see a mile away
part of me was part relieved when I fell apart that day

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

it’s been more than a year now
in the desert on my own
I cut my hair, I bought new dresses
I’m still learning to live alone

every now and then it calls my name
a memory reminds me that nothing is the same

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

I wouldn’t wish this on a friend or enemy
but I also know I’ll never go
back to how it 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

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
