[Verse 1] You left your coat on the chair Like you still might come back Cold coffee ring on the table And a dent in the wax I kept your spare key too long Kept your name in my phone Now I see what you meant When you said you'd outgrown [Pre-Chorus] You were never built for staying I was never built to bend Now the room feels different Now I know where you end [Chorus] Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs You were gone before the morning Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs I don't chase what slips away Surplus to my needs [Verse 2] Your shirt on the back of the door Still smells like the rain I folded it twice, then I laughed Then I let it go plain The plant by the window is dead But I watered it first Funny how one little thing Can still make the hurt worse [Pre-Chorus] You were never built for staying I was never built to bend Now the room feels different Now I know where you end [Chorus] Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs You were gone before the morning Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs I don't chase what slips away Surplus to my needs [Bridge] I don't need the almost I don't need the maybe I don't need a hand that holds Then turns and leaves me [Final Chorus] Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs You were gone before the morning Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs Surplus to my needs I don't chase what slips away Surplus to my needs
