[Verse 1: Jesse Cash]
When I was young the feeling of home crumbled away
The house still stood but I couldn't let it stand in my way

[Chorus: Jesse Cash]
You take what you never had and you just stow it all in secret places
Safe from a sour past, the memories hit you all at once
Let your wounds define you, not hypnotize you
You take what you never had and you just stow it all away

[Verse 2: Jesse Cash]
When I was young learning what not to be
What a child's eyes didn't need to see
It molded me
On the day the rain kept falling
The Holy Ghost stopped calling

[Pre-Chorus: Jesse Cash]
Shake what has come and passed and throw it all away

[Chorus: Jesse Cash]
You take what you never had and you just stow it all in secret places
Safe from a sour past, the memories hit you all at once
Let your wounds define you, not hypnotize you
You take what you never had and you just stow it all away
[Post-Chorus: Jesse Cash]
When I was young

[Bridge: Jesse Cash]
I don't hold onto things that stung from when I was young

[Chorus: Jesse Cash]
You take what you never had and you just stow it all in secret places
Safe from a sour past, the memories hit you all at once
Let your wounds define you not hypnotize you
I won't hold onto anything that stung

[Post-Chorus: Jesse Cash]
When I was young
