Wild Enough To Leave

I kept your picture by the door
Like I was waiting for before
I learned the shape of every lie
And watched our little world run dry

I bent my dreams to fit your plans
Let go of more than you could understand
But somewhere underneath the ache
A heart you couldn't break awake

I don't hate you, don't blame you
There's nothing left I need to prove
But loving you was not enough
To make me stay and call it truth

I'm wild enough to leave
Strong enough to breathe
I won't keep breaking just to keep
A promise neither one could keep

No, I won't curse the love we knew
Or turn the good to something cruel
I'll take the road, let the past be
I'm wild enough to leave

The radio still plays our song
I let it play, then drive along
The miles don't ask me to explain
The sky makes room for joy and pain

I don't need you to regret
Or call this the worst goodbye you've met
Some things can matter, still be through
And I can walk away from you

I don't hate you, don't blame you
There's nothing left I need to prove
But loving you was not enough
To make me stay and call it truth

I'm wild enough to leave
Strong enough to breathe
I won't keep breaking just to keep
A promise neither one could keep

No, I won't curse the love we knew
Or turn the good to something cruel
I'll take the road, let the past be
I'm wild enough to leave

Maybe one day we'll understand
Why love slipped softly through our hands
I'll wish you peace beneath your skies
While I chase mine beyond the lights

No slammed doors, no last demands
Just dust and freedom on my hands
The hardest thing I've ever done
Was leave before we came undone

I'm wild enough to leave
Strong enough to breathe
I won't keep breaking just to keep
A promise neither one could keep

No, I won't curse the love we knew
Or turn the good to something cruel
I'll take the road, let the past be
I'm wild enough to leave

Wild enough to leave
Free enough to breathe
