List of Cracks

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] I miss you like salt in my mouth your name in my coat your chair at the table But I keep the list in the back of my mind the cold little facts that would not bend [Pre-Chorus] The dent in the door the words you kept sharp the plans we made that broke in our hands I read them slow when your shadow comes close [Chorus] Count the cracks count the cracks Hold the line hold the line If I start to fall I read the names of what we broke Count the cracks count the cracks [Verse 2] Your laughter left but the silence stayed the bills on the sill the plate we never fixed We wanted a bridge built from tired hands but one side gave way and the river won [Pre-Chorus] The morning you left the room stayed wrong a glass with a lip mark a shirt on the hook I trace each reason like beads in my palm [Chorus] Count the cracks count the cracks Hold the line hold the line If I start to fall I read the names of what we broke Count the cracks count the cracks [Bridge] Still, some nights I fold toward you like cloth in rain like smoke in a cup Then the trumpet climbs and the old truth returns Some love is a house with no dry floor [Chorus] Count the cracks count the cracks Hold the line hold the line If I start to fall I read the names of what we broke Count the cracks count the cracks
