Fractures of the Sky

[Verse 1] I trace the cracks Running through the coffee cup Same as the lines Carved across your trust You stare past me To the rain on the window frame Say “people change” But you can’t say my name [Chorus] I’m holding up the falling sky Bare hands shaking, still I try If every star we loved has died Why do your eyes still burn my mind Screaming at the quiet night I won’t let us fade this time I’m holding up the falling sky Till you remember we could fly [Verse 2] You packed your thoughts In a box by the bedroom door Folded the shirts Left my jacket on the floor You said “it hurts Just to stand where we began” Turned off the light Left your shadow in my hands [Chorus] I’m holding up the falling sky Bare hands shaking, still I try If every star we loved has died Why do your eyes still burn my mind Screaming at the quiet night I won’t let us fade this time I’m holding up the falling sky Till you remember we could fly [Bridge] All our unspoken words Spin in circles above the bed Every “sorry” unheard Every “please stay” stuck in my chest If this is all that remains Let it tear me apart, not you (not you) I’ll break under the weight If it means you break through [Chorus] I’m holding up the falling sky Bare hands shaking, still I try If every star we loved has died Why do your eyes still burn my mind Screaming at the quiet night I won’t let us fade this time I’m holding up the falling sky Till you remember Till you remember We could fly (we could fly)
