Slide Away

[Verse 1] I left your mug by the sink Still warm from your hand Your jacket on the chair Like you never were here The room held your name Then forgot it at dawn [Pre-Chorus] And I tried to stay But my feet knew first Every door I touched Made the silence hurt [Chorus] I slide away From what we were I slide away And it still burns (static fading) I slide away From what we were [Verse 2] Your text sits unread In the corner of my screen A train grinds past the block And shakes the glass in me I keep your laugh In the back of my throat Then I let it go [Pre-Chorus] And I tried to stay But my hands shook loose Every word I saved Just split me in two [Chorus] I slide away From what we were I slide away And it still burns (static fading) I slide away From what we were [Bridge] If you call tonight I may not answer I’m learning the shape Of a room without us One more step And the ache gets small One more step And I break the fall [Chorus] I slide away From what we were I slide away And it still burns (static fading) I slide away From what we were
