[Verse] Dust in the corner it clings to my shoes Boxes of memories I didn’t choose A sweater that still smells like rain Gone but the feeling remains [Prechorus] Every drawer I pull feels like a test What to keep and what to forget [Chorus] I’m clearing out clearing out All the shadows all the doubt What I don’t need I’ll throw away But why’s your ghost here to stay [Verse 2] A postcard from Paris stuck in a book Your name on the edge I can’t bear to look The clock ticks louder in an empty room Cleaning feels like digging a tomb [Bridge] Sweeping the floor but it’s sweeping my mind The past hides in corners it’s so unkind I toss it I trash it but still it’s clear You’re the one thing that lingers here [Chorus] I’m clearing out clearing out All the shadows all the doubt What I don’t need I’ll throw away But why’s your ghost here to stay
