Just My Name

I wore your name like gold

Held it in my palm

One wrong step and then

Everything went wrong

Cold floor, open hands

A bruise inside my chest

I tried to stand for us

But love don't pass that test

Now I'm staring at the ceiling

Feeling my heart cave in

I can hear the silence

Calling me back again

I fell down hard

I fell down hard

You let go fast

I broke in half

I fell down hard

I fell down hard

Say my name once

Then fade to black

Your jacket on the chair

Still smells like yesterday

I almost reach for it

Then I turn away

I kept your messages

Like sparks under glass

Now every little word

Cuts deeper than the past

Now I'm staring at the ceiling

Feeling my heart cave in

I can hear the silence

Calling me back again

I fell down hard

I fell down hard

You let go fast

I broke in half

I fell down hard

I fell down hard

Say my name once

Then fade to black

If I had one clean breath

I'd give it back to you

But I am full of cracks

And you are lost in blue

Oh-oh, I fell

Oh-oh, I fell

Under your shadow

Under your spell

I fell down hard

I fell down hard

You let go fast

I broke in half

I fell down hard

I fell down hard

Say my name once

Then fade to black

I fell down hard

I fell down hard

Still hear your ghost

When the room goes black

I woke up with rain in my throat

Cracked mug on the counter

Your name on my coat

I fold up the hurt

Like a note in my hand

Still I stand

Still I stand

Breathe in slow

Let it pass

I know the dark

Won't always last

Hands on my heart

I hold the line

One more step

I'm fine

Calm down, calm down

I'm still here

Calm down, calm down

Through the fear

If I break, I bend

Then I rise again

Calm down, calm down

I'm still here

Shoe soles wet on the kitchen tile

Old scars talking

But I smile

There’s a blue flame

Under my skin

I lose, I lose

Then I begin

Breathe in slow

Let it pass

I know the storm

Won't always last

Hands on my heart

I hold the line

One more step

I'm fine

Calm down, calm down

I'm still here

Calm down, calm down

Through the fear

If I break, I bend

Then I rise again

Calm down, calm down

I'm still here

Let the tears run

Let them fall

I’ve been smaller

I've seen it all

But in the ash

There’s a spark

I keep it burning

In the dark

Calm down, calm down

I'm still here

Calm down, calm down

Through the fear

If I break, I bend

Then I rise again

Calm down, calm down

I'm still here

I wake up light on my feet

No crowd, just me and the street

Scuffed white shoes, cracked up phone

Still I walk like I’ve got home

Hands in my pockets, chin high

Tired eyes, but I won’t lie

I’ve cried, then I’ve dried my face

Now I’m learning my own pace

I know the weight

I know the wait

I’ve been low

But I don’t break

Step by step

I’m staying near

To the ground

And through the fear

Lonely but determined

I keep going, I keep going

Down to earth and burning

I keep going, I keep going

(Keep going)

Still I rise, still I learn

(Lonely but determined)

I keep going, I keep going

Late bus hiss, rain on glass

No one saw me, but I passed

Small town roads, grocery bags

Big dreams folded in my bag

I don’t need gold to glow

I’ve got roots that help me grow

Every scar is a map I keep

Every night made my heart more deep

I know the weight

I know the wait

I’ve been low

But I don’t break

Step by step

I’m staying near

To the ground

And through the fear

Lonely but determined

I keep going, I keep going

Down to earth and burning

I keep going, I keep going

(Keep going)

Still I rise, still I learn

(Lonely but determined)

I keep going, I keep going

If I fall, I fall awake

If I bend, I won’t replace

Who I am, I keep it true

Quiet fire running through

No big throne

No perfect scene

Just my name

And what I mean

Lonely but determined

I keep going, I keep going

Down to earth and burning

I keep going, I keep going

(Keep going)

Still I rise, still I learn

(Lonely but determined)

I keep going, I keep going

(Keep going)
