[Verse 1]

I am on the very first week away from you

Not a lot to say or do

I see you in the places where I once held your skin

There's nowhere I can go where we haven't been


[Chorus]

In the middle of a heartbreak song that I'm writin' for you

I find words to escape with all the courage I grew

But I feel you pullin' and my spirit breaks again

I'll be whole but I don't know when


[Post-Chorus]

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when


[Verse 2]

It's easy to compress our time into only good

And lookin' back it's easy to think that nothin' ever really went wrong

And I remember heartache and it helps me understand

Trying to find comfort anyway I can


[Chorus]

In the middle of a heartbreak song that I'm writin' for you

I find words to escape with all the courage I grew

But I feel you pullin' and my spirit breaks again

I'll be whole but I don't know when


[Post-Chorus]

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when


[Bridge]

And as I lie here in pieces

Breakin' was just what I needed

I knew we had to end

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when

The more that I think about it

I was better off without it

But now I have to mend

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when


[Hook]

Oh, oh, oh

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when

Oh, oh, oh

I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when


[Chorus]

In the middle of a heartbreak song that I'm writin' for you

I find words to escape with all the courage I grew

But I feel you pullin' and my spirit breaks again

I'll be whole but I don't know when

But I don't know when
