I Don't Like Who I Was Then

Tossed around like sea glass
And you rounded out my edges
I'll feel better when the headaches go away
I've got a scar across my forehead
Turning purple in the cold
[?]
Sixteen [?] turned away
I'm working babyface
Out of Mid-South in the eighties in the eighties
I count to blame
[?]

[Chorus]
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
I want to run until my lungs give up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
I think enough is enough

Headed in the tall grass
Naked [?]
[?] passed out on the ground
I've been dancing on the grave
I'm not the person I was then
You're standing in the way
I was bitter, I was careless
I was nineteen and afraid

But you deserve more than me
Don't know why I'd say those things
But you deserve more than me
And I'm trying every day

[Chorus]
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
I want to run until my lungs give up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
I think enough is enough

Let me walk into circles
You were a shot in the dark
You were the baby teeth I buried
You were the sound of distant cars

Let me walk into circles
You were a shot in the dark
You were the [?] for no one
That I tattooed across my heart

Let me walk into circles
You were a shot in the dark
You scattered like ashes across every song that I write
You are the light pollution stars

[Chorus]
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
I want to run until my lungs give up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
Enough is enough
