Skinned Knees

I got all of my goodbyes
It felt like a fever dream
I cried on the car ride home
I still don't know what that means

But I'm happy to be alive
'Cause I haven't been in a year
It may be fortune or fate
Either way I'm finally here

If this is it I think I've made it
Not an optimist
Never trying to fake it
When everything feels the way it was supposed to be
Sometimes it takes losing it all for it all to work out eventually

Remember how I went home
Broken ego and skinned knees
I spent the better part of the fall
Throwing the biggest pity party

And I locked all my doors
Like some kind of metaphor for closure
I tried to black it all out
So I'd feel like it was over

If this is it I think I've made it
Not an optimist
Never trying to fake it
When everything feels the way it was supposed to be
Sometimes it takes losing it all for it all to work out eventually
