Left your number by the door Guess neither one of us was sure If goodbye was really goodbye Why does your voice echo every night I've been staring at the ceiling cracks Trying to figure out where we went bad Every answer feels too late Now I'm just counting my mistakes Tell me why my memory won't fade Even after all this pain I'm choking on the words I never said Still hearing all your promises in my head You pulled away, but never let me go Now I'm standing in the dark alone If this is what it means to lose someone Then why does it feel like you're never gone? I'm trying to breathe again But you're still underneath my skin Everybody says with time it will heal Like they know exactly how I feel But every mile I put behind Only brings you back into my mind I keep reaching for a ghost Holding on when I should let go Maybe that's just who I've become Who or than ever found the one Every road leads back to you No matter what I do I'm choking on the words I never said Still hearing every promise in my head You pulled away, but never let me go Now I'm standing in the dark alone If this is what it means to lose someone Then why does it feel like you're never gone? I'm trying to breathe again But you're still underneath my skin Go ahead and use my last name one last time Leave another scar I can't hide Maybe when the silence finally wins I'll remember how to live again I'm choking on the words I never said There's nothing left in my head The fire burned out But you left the smoke behind And now I'm learning how to survive I won't be the man I was before I won't live behind closed doors I'll learn to breathe again Even with the scars you left within
