03-Before You Go

[Verse 1 – quiet, flat] You’re still here But not with me Your eyes move Past what I see Your coat’s on Keys in hand Every word Feels like end [Pre-Chorus – restrained] I don’t ask Where you go I don’t want To know [Chorus – small, honest] Before you go I feel it Before you go I break in it You’re still here But I know Before you go [Verse 2 – lower] You speak soft Like you care But your voice Isn’t there I hold time In my hands Like it’s something I can bend [Pre-Chorus – same, heavier] I stay still I stay kind I don’t cross Your mind [Chorus – same, firmer] Before you go I feel it Before you go I break in it You’re still here But I know Before you go [Bridge – near-whisper] If I touch you Will you stay? If I’m quiet Will you fade? I don’t move I don’t speak I love you Too much to keep [Final Chorus – resigned] Before you go I’m already gone Every night I hold this on You’re still here But I know Before you go [Outro – cut short] Your bag By the door I don’t move Anymore Before you go
