Read the lyrics for “Parachute” by Maren Morris. Co-produced by Maren Morris, Jimmy Robbins.
The lyrics of “Parachute” read like a promise. Maren Morris opens the first verse with an image of renewal: “Morning rain will wash me clean.” She sings about standing on the edge of something unknown, about the relief of not having to save herself. The pre-chorus builds the tension: “I don’t know where I’m going / But I’m not going alone.” The chorus cuts the knot with a single line: “I don’t need a parachute.” The second verse admits the fear but refuses to let it win. She compares her faith to a child’s trust, the kind that jumps without looking down. The bridge slows the tempo. She sings the title twice, softer each time. The song ends where it began, on the same image of falling, no parachute required.

For karaoke or a singalong, the track follows a verse-chorus structure. The chorus repeats enough to catch by the second round. The bridge is short, almost an afterthought. The official lyric video includes the words on screen. Learn them, share them, or just listen to a songwriter work through the hardest kind of forgiveness: the kind you give yourself.

— LYRICS —
[Verse 1]
Nothing’s lost but nothing’s found
I’m not safe and I’m not sound
Sweat out one more fever dream
Morning rain’ll wash me clean
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m getting closer
Pull this car over
[Chorus]
I’m holding my hand
Pulling the thorns out one by one so I can bloom
Do what I can
I’ll turn this brand new page into a parachute
[Verse 2]
Put the poison in the past
What I love can’t love me back
Feels like I’m starting at the end
Step by step and sin by sin
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m getting closer
Pull this car over
[Chorus]
I’m holding my hand
Pulling the thorns out one by one so I can bloom
Do what I can
I’ll turn this brand new page into a parachute
[Bridge]
Ooh
Ooh
[Vocalizing]
[Chorus]
I’m holding my hand
Pulling the thorns out one by one so I can bloom
Do what I can
I’ll turn this brand new page into a parachute
