[Intro] [cello enters low and sawing, oboe answers in a thin long line] [dry kick and analog bass lock a heavy 112 pulse] [Verse 1] I make the coffee like you used to Leave the second cup by the sink The hallway still remembers your footsteps I don't look at it when I think The bed is wide and I still take my half Like you might come back through the door I live the hours, I pay the bills I don't know what I'm doing it for [Pre-Chorus] [oboe climbs, cello holds the floor] Every room is doing fine Every room is telling lies [Chorus] [vocals closer, sad and cracked, drums stay tight] Living without you Is just a quieter kind of noise Living without you Is waking up and finding I still have a voice I go to work, I come back home I say I'm good, I almost am Living without you Is how I keep from falling in [Verse 2] [cello saws harder under the vocal] Your jacket's gone from the hook I left the nail, I don't know why The radio plays a song we ruined I let it play, I let it die People ask and I say better Better is a word I use Living is a thing I practice Not a thing I get to choose [Pre-Chorus] [oboe thin and high] Every night I close the light Every night I lose the fight [Chorus] Living without you Is just a quieter kind of noise Living without you Is waking up and finding I still have a voice I go to work, I come back home I say I'm good, I almost am Living without you Is how I keep from falling in [Bridge] [drums thin out, cello and oboe only] I don't want another name I don't want a softer bed I just want the stupid morning Where you steal the covers instead [bass and kick return] [Final Chorus] Living without you Is just a quieter kind of noise Living without you Is learning how to carry all this void I go to work, I come back home I say I'm good — I'm not, I'm thin Living without you Is the only way I live in [Outro] [oboe holds one last falling note, cello fades under the kick] Living without you [whisper] still
