The Story I Stopped Telling - Breaking Rust
We're at the end of highway nine
Neon buzzing like tired sunshine
Same old stool, same brown pour
Same blank sliding across the floor
Said you changed, said work was hard
Said this town left too many scars
Man, we know like I was right
Music drowning out the night
Told that tale so many times
It started sounding like a lie
That's the story I stopped telling
The one where I was never wrong
Blame rolls easy off the tongue
But truth sits heavy, strong
No one made me turn away
No one forced my pride to stay
I set that glass down half full
And faced the man I'd pulled
Halfway through my practice speech
Heard the hollow in my reach
No one stopped me holding back
When you needed more than that
Late nights chosen over care
I'm sorry stuck in silent air
Not the job and not this town
It was me who let you down
Paid my tab at break of dawn
Walked away without a song
That's the story I stopped telling
The one where I was misunderstood
Honesty don't shout or swell
It whispers what you could
Have done better, stood up tall
Answered when you made that call
Blame was loud and easy then
Truth is quiet in the end
House was louder than that bar
Silence showed me who we are
I ain't blaming you no more
Hours spent behind that door
Growth don't start in crowded rooms
It starts when silence blooms
I lost you, that's plain to see
But I won't keep losing me
That old excuse is gone and gone
This is where I'm starting from
No more story told for show
Just the truth I finally know
