[Verse 1] [no humming] I still wake up on your side Like my heart forgot to learn That the room got twice as quiet And the world still had to turn Your jacket’s by the doorway Your voice is in my phone I keep playing back the message Just to not feel so alone [Pre-Chorus] Your keys are on the dresser Like they’re waiting for your hand I hate every sunrise For asking me to stand [Chorus] Where does the light go When it leaves your eyes? Does it break into static Or spill into the sky? I keep my hands open But nobody comes close I’m still here asking Where does the light go? Where does the light go? [Verse 2] I still keep your last letter In the book beside our bed I reread every sentence Like it brings you back again Everyone says time heals Like they know what it takes When they tell me be brave Like they’ve stood in my place [Chorus] Where does the light go When it leaves your eyes? Does it burn through the silence Or vanish in the sky? I keep the room open But nobody comes close I’m still here wondering Where does the light go? [Bridge] I wear your old sweater When the nights get too loud I swear I hear your voice When the power goes out Maybe you’re not nowhere Maybe I’m not alone Maybe love leaves a signal From somewhere I can’t go [Final Chorus] Where does the light go When it leaves your eyes? Does it turn into thunder Or flood the other side? I keep my heart open Though nobody comes close I’ll keep asking forever Where does the light go? Where does the light go? [Outro] If there’s a road I can’t see Leave a light there for me [Short Instrumental Outro Static, distant piano, warm synth pulse Fade out unresolved] [End with a short unresolved instrumental outro using static]
