Won't clean the sheets because they smell like you
Don't wanna let the light in, don't need the sun peaking through
Won't move the books that lay crooked on my shelf
Wanna keep it all the same
I wanna keep you all to myself
You're out of my life
Yet still I find my eyes searching you
For years I haven't moved
And if you were to call then I'd quiet the whole room
Tell the birds in the trees and the cars in the streets
To hush
And leave the two of us
The sound of you is enough
I'll take whatever's left my love
Don't wanna go out long as I'm missing you
Not much to my surprise this Christmas
Like the rest of the year was blue
Didn't even put a tree up, don't it seem strange?
Third year in a row
You know I was never that way
The fridge notes that you'd write
My hair the way you like I've kept it all
But the only thing that's wrong
Is I've grown numb to the pain
It's what I deserve to feel again
I won't say it out loud
For it all just amounts to dust
A blessing and a curse
That's the story of us
Keep it to ourselves
We don't bring it up
For closure kneels to love
And love bows down to trust
So I hope before you come to know
My letter finds you first
