Touching Down

I wrote these lyrics a long time ago. It was a bad time. I had become Miss #1 Codependent. Wearing the sash and banner and following the leader. In this case, my leader didn’t care about me, didn’t want the best for me, and edited my every move. Strangulation would have been more freeing. I dreamed about flying off ‘leaving my whole life behind’ and becoming a brand new powerful, independent girl.

I did end up breaking away from my leader, burning my Miss #1 Codependent sash and starting fresh, all without leaving my life behind. “That which doesn’t kill us, only makes us stronger.”

Touching Down

I’m leaving you again

there’s a chance I’m not coming home

It’s weird but I’m so free

Pre-Chorus

of my loneliness

I’m not scared of you anymore

Chorus

Touching down

leaving all my life behind

taking off

and let it all fall away

I’m sorry what I said

never thought it would end this way

couldn’t take much more of this

Pre Chorus

Chorus

Chorus

Bridge

Thinking we could work it out sometimes

but we tried so hard

so much better off now
