[Verse 1] You stopped laughing at the little things Stopped dancing in the kitchen light Started holding me like luggage Instead of holding me like life Your side of the bed got colder Your eyes stopped reaching mine Funny how the worst goodbyes Never sound like goodbye [Pre-Chorus] We still kissed before work Still said, “drive safe” on the phone But somewhere inside all that normal I started sleeping alone [Chorus] You stopped loving me in slow motion I watched the light go out in pieces Funny how forever dies so quietly No slammed doors, no shattered dishes Every room kept the evidence Every touch got a little thinner You didn’t leave me all at once You disappeared by centimeters [Post-Chorus] Centimeters Centimeters Close enough to touch Too far to get back [Verse 2] You quit sending random pictures You knew would make me laugh Started turning your screen away Like I wasn’t meant to ask You stopped telling me the small things The kind nobody else would know And I kept trying to save a version of us You’d already let go [Pre-Chorus] We still said goodnight Still slept underneath one roof But love can look completely normal While it’s quietly losing you [Chorus] You stopped loving me in slow motion I watched the light go out in pieces Funny how forever dies so quietly No slammed doors, no shattered dishes Every room kept the evidence Every touch got a little thinner You didn’t leave me all at once You disappeared by centimeters [Bridge] Maybe I held on too hard Maybe you checked out too soon Maybe love doesn’t die all at once Maybe it empties room by room First the kitchen Then the bed Then the things we never said Then one night I reached for you And there was nothing left [Break] No fight No warning No final scene Just less of you Beside me Every week [Final Chorus] You stopped loving me in slow motion And I felt every second leaving Your body stayed beside me While your heart found somewhere else to sleep in Funny how forever dies so quietly No explosion, no beginning You didn’t leave me all at once You disappeared by centimeters Centimeter By centimeter Until I couldn’t tell When you stopped being mine Just two people Turning into strangers In slow motion [Outro] You never slammed the door You just kept getting farther While lying next to me
