letra de still here - jimmie newport
[verse 1]
the house is quiet now, but it still feels loud
walls hold the yelling that n0body says out loud
mom’s in the kitchen pretending she’s fine
dad’s in the garage with a beer and too much time
[pre-chorus]
you can move away, change your number twice
tell yourself you’re done paying that price
but every christmas, somebody asks where you’ve been
and your last name still opens the door you locked again
[chorus]
they’re still my family
broken as they are
i can’t erase the damage or wish away thе scars
walkin’ out doesn’t make the tiе disappear
you’re still connected, even when you’re not here
yeah
[verse 2]
my sister calls crying at two in the morning
same old story, same old warning
i listen for hours, say the things i swore i wouldn’t say
send her the money that keeps her afloat one more day
i tell myself this time i’m finally through
i’m not the one who has to fix you
but the guilt sits heavy when i try to let go
some debts you’re born with and you already know (know know know)
[chorus]
they’re still my family
broken as they are
i can’t erase the damage or wish away the scars
walkin’ out doesn’t make the tie disappear
you’re still connected, even when you’re not here
yeah
[bridge]
i thought running far would make me clean
a brand new life, a brand new scene
but the truth is harder than i wanted it to be (be be)
you don’t get free, you just learn what carrying means
so i stay in the mess, i show up, i try
because love isn’t leaving someone behind to die
[verse 3]
i drive back home, and n0body expects
sit at the table with the same old regrets
we don’t fix everything, we better get back
but we keep trying, that’s the reason why
[chorus]
they’re still my family
broken as they are
i can’t erase the damage or wish away the scars
walkin’ out doesn’t make the tie disappear
you’re still connected, even when you’re not here
yeah, even when you’re not here
[outro]
you’re still my family
and i’m still here
you don’t get to choose who you’re born to say
only whether you turn your back or stay
