I Filled My Pockets Till They Tore Civilvlad, Elen@Russ

I filled my pockets till they tore
With little things I couldn't leave
Old photographs and open doors
And every promise I believed

I kept the weight against my skin
Like letting go would mean I lost
But every road I carried in
Was asking what the past had cost

Maybe I don't need it all

Maybe some things need to fall

If we're still standing here tonight

We don't have to hold so tight

I filled my pockets till they tore
Trying to carry more and more
But I don't need that weight tonight
If you're beside me in the light

Let it fall

Let it go

We don't have to own what broke us before
I filled my pockets till they tore
Now I don't need them anymore

I drove for miles without a map
With every wrong turn in my head
I thought the past would pull me back
But every mile moved me ahead

I wore my silence like a coat
Too heavy for a warmer day
Then you were there beside the road
And somehow made the weight give way

Maybe I was holding on

To something that was already gone

Maybe the hardest thing to find

Is leaving what you loved behind

And still believing you'll be fine

I filled my pockets till they tore
Trying to carry more and more
But I don't need that weight tonight
If you're beside me in the light

Let it fall

Let it go

We don't have to own what broke us before
I filled my pockets till they tore
Now I don't need them anymore

If I open up my hands
Will the pieces disappear

No, they'll still be part of us
They just don't have to keep us here

What we lost can stay behind
What we learned can travel on
We can leave with empty pockets
And still know where we belong

I filled my pockets till they tore
I won't be carrying them anymore
We don't need every scar tonight
We only need a little light

Let it fall

Let it go

Every mile is teaching us what we know
I filled my pockets till they tore
But I don't need that weight anymore

No more weight

No more running from the door

I filled my pockets till they tore
Now I don't need them anymore

Let it fall
Let it go
We don't need it anymore
