Title: “I Was Fifteen” Verse 1 I was fifteen, didn’t question much Thought the world was good, thought people were as such Didn’t look twice, didn’t second guess Never thought I’d have to learn what darkness is Then it happened—and I won’t dress it up Just one moment that was more than enough To flip the ground and change my view Like the sky fell down and I fell with it too Pre-Chorus And I didn’t have the words back then Just a feeling I couldn’t understand Chorus I was fifteen when it all went wrong When I stopped believing I was strong And I spent years just trying to cope Calling chaos living, calling damage hope But I made it out the other side Piece by piece, I rebuilt my life And I’m not the girl I used to be But she’s still somewhere inside of me Verse 2 I made choices I don’t talk about Put myself in places I should’ve walked out Didn’t care if I got hurt again Kind of felt like I deserved it then And I lost track of what was right Got too used to the darker nights Every step just blurred the line Between surviving and losing my mind Pre-Chorus And no one really sees that part How it lives in you, not just your past Chorus I was fifteen when it all went wrong When I stopped believing I belonged And I spent years just trying to cope Calling chaos living, calling damage hope But I made it out the other side Piece by piece, I rebuilt my life And I’m not the girl I used to be But she’s still somewhere inside of me Bridge (Stick Season style – more conversational) Now I read people like it’s second nature Always clocking every little danger Still don’t trust it when things feel right Still half-waiting for the next bad night But I found something in the mess I made In the photos, in the words I say Turns out pain doesn’t just disappear You just learn how to live with it being there Break (quiet, raw) I thought I was broken for a while Turns out I was just trying to survive Final Chorus (Adele lift) I was fifteen—and it changed my life But it didn’t take me out the fight Yeah I bent, I broke, I lost my way But I’m standing here at the end of the day And I don’t need fixing, I made it through Every version of me I outgrew And everything that tried to bury me— Is the reason I know who I am to be Outro (soft, reflective) I was fifteen… And I’m still here
