Right Reasons, Walking Lighter

by Moth Static

“A quiet, kind breakup where nobody slams a door. It took me a while to be able to sing it without wobbling.”

Lyrics

I packed the boxes, you packed yours
No slammed doors, just a quiet street
We both said sorry, both said thanks
And the evening felt complete

It hurt a little, that's okay
But my shoulders feel so light today

It was right, it was right
Walking lighter into the light
We were good, we were true
But the road was not for two
It was right, it was right
Sing it out into the night
I miss you, and I'm free
Both of those are true for me

I danced around my own front room
Found my old records in a box
Nothing broke, and nothing's wrong
It's just the shape my life unlocks

It hurt a little, that's okay
But my shoulders feel so light today

It was right, it was right
Walking lighter into the light
We were good, we were true
But the road was not for two
It was right, it was right
Sing it out into the night
I miss you, and I'm free
Both of those are true for me

Wish you well, wish you well
Wherever the morning finds you
Wish you well, wish you well
I'm growing too

It was right, it was right
Walking lighter into the light
We were good, we were true
But the road was not for two
It was right, it was right
Sing it out into the night
I miss you, and I'm free
Both of those are true for me

It was right
Walking lighter
