Keys in the bowl by the door Same place you left them before Jacket still hangs on the chair Like you might come back for it there Kettle clicks off on its own I pour it out, drink it alone Clock on the wall never lies Just counts what passes me by You left the kitchen light on again Like someone might still walk in I stand there longer than I should Like staying might do some good [Verse 2] Fridge hum fills up the room Cold air and half-finished food Plate in the sink from last night I said I’d wash it, I might Your glass still sits where you stood Lip mark still catching the light I turn it round, then I stop Feels like erasing too much You left the kitchen light on again Like someone might still walk in I stand there longer than I should Like staying might do some good I thought I’d be further by now Not counting chairs in this house Not keeping quiet this long Just to prove I’m still strong You left the kitchen light on again I haven’t turned it off since Some nights I sit where you were And let it burn, let it burn Morning comes in through the blind Still leaves that light on behind
