Slate & Apology

You scratched my name on a careless day
The chalk dust flew, and I walked away
Every step felt heavier than stone
But the silence wasn't meant to last long
We both had walls we had to break
Every heart makes its own mistakes
I'm braver than I think, I can stand in the rain
Every crack in the glass taught me more than the pain
I'm braver than I think, I can open the door
We're not who we were before
You left a note where the sunlight fell
A simple word that could heal so well
I laughed too loud, and I saw you smile
Like the first chord I'd played in a while
We both had walls we had to break
Every heart makes its own mistakes
I'm braver than I think, I can stand in the rain
Every crack in the glass taught me more than the pain
I'm braver than I think, I can open the door
We're not who we were before
If we trip, we'll trip together
If we mend, it's gonna matter forever
Every scar's just proof we've been real
And that's the part you can't steal
I'm braver than I think, I can stand in the rain
Every crack in the glass taught me more than the pain
I'm braver than I think, I can open the door
We're not who we were before
We're not who we were… anymore
