Lyrics

Your sweater’s still on my chair Like you might come back for air The quiet knows your name by now And says it softer than i allow You haunt the mirror when i breathe Your echo's curled beneath my sheets If love was meant to fall apart Then why’d you stitch it to my heart? I loved you like a secret Like a wound i couldn’t close Every “i miss you” tastes like Words i shouldn’t know You were here, then slipping through— All my hollow pretty things You fade like perfume The clock still sighs at 2 a.m. I swear i feel you in my skin But you’re just weightless in the dark A silence wrapped around my scars You said we’d never turn to ghosts But even shadows let me go If love was just a borrowed flame Why’d it still whisper like my name? I loved you like a secret Like a bruise i couldn’t show Every “i miss you” tastes like Lying to my soul You were here, then slipping through— All my hollow pretty things You fade like perfume Maybe in another sky You’d stay But here, you vanish Like rain on glass Still beautiful Still gone
