lyrics

V1

My pockets were empty
You covered the bill
Not sure if I’d make it
But you said I will 
I’m not lost, not too far gone
I’m just

Trapped in my thoughts
But you’re pulling me out
Screaming, “My life sucks”
You shot that down
I'm not lost, not too far gone
I'm just recovering

 

CHORUS
Here's to the ones who got me through it
The ones who always knew
I'd find myself in the thick of things
Just chalk it up to recovery

Here’s to the ones who made me better
The old me, just forget 
I swear it’s the only way I'll walk
Just chalk it up to recovery

 

V2
Back on my feet now
Breath in my lungs
I called it a breakdown 
that's not what it was
I'm not lost, not too far gone

Stuck in the waiting
For a little too long
Hindsight’s telling me
It’s time to move on
Your words echo in my head
Painted on the road ahead
We’re going far, not fast so…

 

BRIDGE
It's complicated, but you tell me that it's all okay
I can't be homeless when you given me a place to stay
It's so chaotic but I'm taking it day by day 
Just chalk it up to recovery

You brought me color when I painted life a dark, cold grey
You held me closer when I had the urge to run away 
You saved my twenties and I know it sounds so cliche
Just chalk it up to recovery

You saw it coming but it's always been the same to me
