Empty Room
Empty Room [Intro] [Instrumental Intro] The door clicks shut. Nothing moves. [Verse 1] Your shoes are still beside the bed Your old blue shirt hangs where you left it There's dust collecting on the frame I keep expecting you to walk in again The coffee cup you used each morning Still sits beside the kitchen sink I pick it up, then put it down And lose another hour trying not to think [Pre-Chorus] I know you're gone I know the truth But every part of this place Still points to you [Chorus] I'm standing in an empty room Talking to a picture of you I call your name, but no one turns I touch the door, but it doesn't move I'm standing in an empty room And I don't know what to do How can one person leave so much behind And take so much when they leave too? [Verse 2] Your number's still inside my phone I never had the nerve to delete it I scroll past your name at 2:14 Like seeing it somehow means you're still here I found your keys inside the drawer The ones you said you'd need tomorrow I held them tight against my hand And finally understood there was no tomorrow [Pre-Chorus] I know you're gone I know the truth But every part of this place Still points to you [Chorus] I'm standing in an empty room Talking to a picture of you I call your name, but no one turns I touch the door, but it doesn't move I'm standing in an empty room And I don't know what to do How can one person leave so much behind And take so much when they leave too? [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] [Male] If I could have one more minute I'd waste none of it I'd tell you all the things I thought you already knew I'd ask you to stay Even knowing you couldn't I'd hold your hand And never let the moment end [Breakdown] [Male] The room is empty. Your chair is empty. But every word you gave me Is still inside my head. [Build] [Male] I don't want to forget you I don't want to lose your voice I don't want this room to be The only place I still have a choice [Chorus] I'm standing in an empty room Talking to a picture of you I call your name, but no one turns I touch the door, but it doesn't move I'm standing in an empty room And I don't know what to do How can one person leave so much behind And take so much when they leave too? [Outro] [Male] I'll leave your picture where it is I'll keep the cup beside the sink Not because I think you'll walk back in But because you were here. [Fade Out] Empty room... Still your room...
