On and On

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

I packed the boxes twice

Taped the seams then tore them open

Every hallway smells like him

And I still leave the porch light on

I tell my friends I'm doing fine

Then rehearse the lie until it sounds real

Therapy on Thursday afternoons

But the silence follows me home

Pre-Chorus

And I'm counting days like coins

And I'm trading sleep for noise

But the quiet always wins

Chorus

I keep failing at moving on

I keep failing at moving on

Every step forward pulls me back

Back to where I don't belong

I keep failing at moving on

Post-Chorus

(On and on and on)

I keep failing at moving on

(On and on and on)

Verse 2

I changed my number changed my route

Cut my hair and burned the letters

Still his voice lives in my chest

A tenant I can't evict

I built a life from borrowed parts

Smiled in photographs I hate

Strangers ask me how I've been

And I forget which answer's true

Pre-Chorus

So I'm running out of breath

And I'm running out of reasons

But the running never stops

Chorus

I keep failing at moving on

I keep failing at moving on

Every step forward pulls me back

Back to where I don't belong

I keep failing at moving on

Post-Chorus

(On and on and on)

I keep failing at moving on

(On and on and on)

Bridge

Maybe healing isn't linear

Maybe scars just learn to hide

Maybe I'm not broken

Maybe I'm just tired

Breakdown

I am tired

I am tired

I am tired of being tired

Chorus

I keep failing at moving on

I keep failing at moving on

Every step forward pulls me back

Back to where I don't belong

I keep failing at moving on

Post-Chorus

(On and on and on)

I keep failing at moving on

(On and on and on)

(On and on)
