(Verse 1) The porch light flickers in the graying air An empty glass, a dust-filmed rocking chair I look across the fields where shadows grow The last car left the blacktop hours ago I pull my collar tight against the chill The grandfather clock is ticking, then stands still The silence is a weight upon the floor There’s no one coming up the path no more (Chorus) And the wind just passes through the window pane With a cold and heavy, uninviting rain You can stare into the dark until it hurts But the silence gets the final, heavy word Look around this house of wood and stone When the last light fades, you’re standing here alone With no one left to call your name (Verse 2) Your coat is hanging by the kitchen door The boards are creaking on the empty floor I found a letter in a desk downstairs But it was written for a past that no one shares The clock hands spin, but time is standing dead The things we should have done, the words unsaid The tea is cold, the kettle’s turning rust And everything we built is turning into dust (Chorus) And the wind just passes through the window pane With a cold and heavy, uninviting rain You can stare into the dark until it hurts But the silence gets the final, heavy word Look around this house of wood and stone When the last light fades, you’re standing here alone With no one left to call your name (Bridge) It’s the quiet after everybody goes The final chapter that nobody knows A hollow space where laughter used to live With nothing left to take and less to give You listen close, you hold your breath and wait But footsteps never make it to the gate (Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break) (Chorus) And the wind just passes through the window pane With a cold and heavy, uninviting rain You can stare into the dark until it hurts But the silence gets the final, heavy word Look around this house of wood and stone When the last light fades, you’re standing here alone With no one left to call your name (Outro) No one left... The grass grows tall beside the gravel drive Just trying to remember you’re alive But the dark is deep and the air is cold And there’s no one left to hold No one left to call your name.
