elizabeth saulsbury - late bloomer lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
are you surprised that i used to be sensitive
soft and believing, inexperienced
most days i feel mostly stunted by him
want some control of the narrative

[pre+chorus 1]
i’m sorry to those who knew me back then
i was only a kid
no i wasn’t

[chorus 1]
i guess you could call me a late bloomer
there are things i should have known sooner
about empty words
and how love can burn
i was behind the curve, but i made it
i learned

[verse 1]
he didn’t like me crying so i didn’t fight
he said i had issues and left for the night
in parking lots of promises
he said i was too damaged, but the damage was his

[pre+chorus]
so i’m sorry for the earth i scorched when i left
i had to erase myself
and i did
[chorus 2]
so i guess you could say i’m a late bloomer
there are things i should have done sooner
learned not to care, washed him out of my hair
put my foot down and left it there
i’m late to the party, but i made it
i’m here
i’m here

[bridge]
i’m here
but i carry the weight of those days
i moved on from him quickly but i wasn’t the same
there was some new deformity i couldn’t name
but i try not to notice it and not to place blame
’cause yes, i was late
but still far too young
to make such mistakes, twenty+two, twenty+one
yes i was late
disenchanted forever
you know what they say
better late than never

[chorus 3]
so i guess you could call me a late bloomer
there are things i wish i’d done sooner
followed my dream and taken wing
given myself permission to sing
i’m running behind
the last to arrive
but i learned, i’m here, i made it
i’m alive
i’m alive
i’m alive
