pappajohness - everyone comes with baggage lyrics

[verse 1]
you came in carrying someone else’s damage
i came in pretending i didn’t have it
smiles on, pain zipped tight
both of us lying about the weight inside
i joke when it cuts too deep
you disappear when you start to bleed
two defense mechanisms in love
calling it “us” when it’s never enough

[pre+chorus]
we keep stepping around the mess
like it won’t trip us in the end
but unspoken sh+t gets loud
when you’re scared to be honest then

[chorus]
everyone comes with baggage, that’s the truth
skeletons dressed up as “nothing to lose”
we can trip over each other’s past
or unpack it slow, make it last
we can bleed out over old scars
or stitch them up in the dark
everyone comes with baggage, yeah it’s true
i just wanna know what you’ll do
[verse 2]
you shut down, i get sarcastic
call it toxic, call it classic
fighting over sh+t we don’t mean
while the real pain stays unseen
your silence screams louder than words
my walls go up when i get hurt
we don’t argue about what’s said
we argue about what’s left unsaid

[pre+chorus]
we’re standing face to face again
both scared to open what we hide
‘cause if you see what’s in my bag
you might decide to say goodbye

[chorus]
everyone comes with baggage, that’s the truth
old love letters and bullet wounds
we can trip over each other’s pain
or learn how to carry the weight the same
we can let it tear us apart
or unpack it piece by piece in the dark
everyone comes with baggage, yeah it’s true
i just wanna unpack mine with you
[bridge]
so let’s sit on the floor, back against the bed
say all the things we’re scared to admit
i’ll show you the parts i hate the most
the parts i swore i’d never expose
i don’t need saving, don’t need a cure
just don’t walk out when it gets raw
if you’re gonna love me at all
love me when i’m hard to ignore

[breakdown]
i’m not clean
i’m not healed
i’m not everything i pretend to be
but i’m here
still choosing you
even when it hurts choosing me

[chorus]
everyone comes with baggage, that’s a fact
some of it’s heavy, some of it cracks
we can keep tripping till we fall apart
or unpack it where we are
we can run every time it hurts
or stay and do the f+cking work
everyone comes with baggage, it’s true
so tell me—are you staying too?
[outro]
if we break, let it be honest
if we heal, let it be messy
everyone comes with baggage, yeah
i just don’t wanna carry it alone anymore
