lyrics

I was 22 and didn’t know who I was gonna be
So I thought I needed somebody to be my everything
It felt like true love just because he built me up
Only to tear me down

How’d I get there? I don’t know
This ain’t the life that the movies show
It felt like a waste of time
But you can grow from the tears that you’ve cried

And now I wear heels on a Friday night
Take a solo trip on my own dime
Less baggage, I finally had it
And walked out of his life
I wear makeup because I can
Red lips for me, not some man
It’s about time I walked out of his life
Straight into mine

It’s funny how when I began
To dip my toes in the water of who I should have been
Little by little I started to see that
The best parts of me were

Wearing heels on a Friday night
Taking solo trips on my own dime
Less baggage, I finally had it
And walked out of his life
I wear makeup because I can
Red lips for me, not some man
It’s about time I walked out of his life
Straight into mine

How’d I get there? I don’t know
This ain’t the life that the movies show
It felt like a waste of time
But you can grow from the tears that you’ve cried

And now I wear heels on a Friday night
Take a solo trip on my own dime
Less baggage, I finally had it
And walked out of his life
I wear makeup because I can
Red lips for me, not some man
It’s about time I walked out of his life
About time that I walked out of his life
Straight into mine
Oh, straight into mine, yeah
