Verse 1
I had a list of things I meant to be
A job a home a version you could keep
But the hours ran out and the rent came due
And I gave you half of me and called it proof
Pre-Chorus
So you packed the parts you understood
Left the rest behind
Called it me not trying hard enough
And I just said alright
Chorus
I never got to show you all of it
The whole of me the better half I hid
You wanted someone finished someone whole
I was still becoming
Still becoming
And you left before I did
Verse 2
The neighbors talk like I am something thin
My mother sighs and says try harder kid
I am stretched so far across the week
There is nothing left of me to give
Pre-Chorus
So I came to you with empty hands
Hoping you would hold
But you measured me in what I lacked
And I just let it go
Chorus
I never got to show you all of it
The whole of me the better half I hid
You wanted someone finished someone whole
I was still becoming
Still becoming
And you left before I did
Bridge
Maybe I am tired
Maybe that's the truth
Maybe I am tired
Of proving I am worth the room
Chorus
I never got to show you all of it
The whole of me the better half I hid
You wanted someone finished someone whole
I was still becoming
Still becoming
And you left before I did
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh
Still becoming
Oh-oh
Still becoming
Oh-oh
Chorus
I never got to show you all of it
The whole of me the better half I hid
You wanted someone finished someone whole
I was still becoming
Still becoming
And you left before I did
