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
