I used to breathe without the weight Before the nights I couldn't face I'd trace the outline of my scars Pretending I knew who we are I lost my fire, lost my plans And every mirror that I touch Shows someone I don't know that much And I keep trying to repair The pieces that were never there I swear I'm fighting, I still am But I don't know who I became I miss who I was Before I learned how to fall Before I lost my voice screaming through these walls I miss who I was Before I broke beyond repair Before the fire stole my lungs And left me stranded in the air I miss who I was I miss who I was Bring me back I try to walk without the ache But every step begins to shake Your shadow clings beneath my ribs A ghost I never learned to lift I let you carve into my chest I let you name the emptiness Now every quiet room I'm in Echoes with who I should've been And I keep reaching through the dark To grab the pieces of my heart I swear I'm trying to move on But I don't know where I belong I miss who I was Before I learned how to fall Before I lost my voice screaming through these walls I miss who I was Before I broke beyond repair Before the fire stole my lungs And left me stranded in the air I miss who I was I miss who I was Bring me back To who I was I don't blame you for the end I blame the parts I couldn't mend I blame the silence I adored The way I lost myself for more I hate the nights I hear your name I hate the way it feels the same And every tear I never shed Still haunts the corners of my head I miss who I was Before I learned how to fall Before I lost my voice trying to give you all I miss who I was Before the light began to drown Before the weight of what we were Pulled everything to the ground I miss who I was I miss who I was Bring me back I miss who I was And if I never make it back Just know I tried I miss who I was More than I ever missed you
