You tore through my quiet Like glass in my chest Said forever so softly Then you left me with the rest Your jacket on the chair Your name in every room Every picture like a haunting Every heartbeat like a wound You were my everything Now you’re the ache in me I still hear your laughter Echo down the hall Every word you whispered Now feels like a fall I trace your shadow’s outline On walls we used to know But every line is fading And I’m the last to let go You said we were endless Like stars that never die Now I’m counting seconds Just to ask myself why You were my everything Now you’re the ache in me A ghost in every dream A tear I couldn’t see You were my gravity Now I’m just drifting free You were my everything Now you’re the ache in me I wear the nights you left me Like scars beneath my skin Every “I love you” you gave Cuts deeper now within Your coffee cup is empty But I can’t throw it out It’s like if I just hold on I won’t have to feel the doubt We built a forever On promises and flame Now I’m here with ashes Still calling out your name You were my everything Now you’re the ache in me A ghost in every dream A tear I couldn’t see You were my gravity Now I’m just drifting free You were my everything Now you’re the ache in me Maybe I was just a moment Maybe you were just a lie Maybe love’s a broken language We were never meant to write But if you ever think about me In the quiet of your night Know I’m still here bleeding From a love I couldn’t fight (You said forever…) (You said forever…) But forever didn’t stay You were my everything Now you’re the ache in me A shadow in my light The part I couldn’t keep You were my gravity Now I’m falling endlessly You were my everything Now you’re the ache in me Your jacket’s still here waiting But you’re not coming home And I’m learning how to live With loving you alone…
