Spelling You in the Dark

[Verse 1] Your shoes by the door again Mud on the laces, same old scene I keep your spare key in the bowl Next to the bills and the broken screen You said "I'll call" from the driveway The taillights cut a red seam I watched the sink full of dishes Like they were proof of you and me [Pre-Chorus] I tried to fold up this room But it keeps your shape I tried to laugh at the bruise But it won't fade [Chorus] Cut me open Say my name I still hear you in the frame Cut me open Leave your mark I'm still spelling you in the dark (in the dark) [Verse 2] Your gray hoodie on my chair back One cuff torn at the seam I wore it when the power went out And the whole house felt like a dream The calendar's still got your shift X'd out in blue ink lines Every time I see that slot It hits like a dropped phone line [Pre-Chorus] I tried to burn this note I kept the ash I tried to shut that door But I kept looking back [Chorus] Cut me open Say my name I still hear you in the frame Cut me open Leave your mark I'm still spelling you in the dark (in the dark) [Bridge] If you come back, don't say sorry Just stand in the hall Let the quiet do the talking Let it shake these walls I got your dent in the mattress Your ring on the glass I'm not brave, I'm just waiting For this to stop feeling like the past [Final Chorus] Cut me open Say my name I still hear you in the frame Cut me open Leave your mark I'm still spelling you in the dark (in the dark) Cut me open Break me down I still reach when you're not around Cut me open Stay too long I made a home out of the wrong (the wrong)
