Can you remember when
This house wasn't so cold
The light would linger longer
It's absence never known
Under painted leaves
We hid our secrets in the walls
Feels like it was for nothing
We begged you not to go
We begged like dogs out in the cold
We prayed at night like we were told
When the sun comes up we will be whole again
But it's only been dark ever since you left
Leave me here
I don't want to feel this
I don't want to see
The spaces you left in everything
Your ghost surrounds me
You were everything
Dust stains
Every surface in the room
I stand here in silence
Weighted by the gloom
Of a million moments past
Lifetimes spent with you
How will I carry on
We begged like dogs out in the cold
And we prayed at night like we were told
Leave me here
I don't want to feel this
I don't want to see
The spaces you left in everything
Your ghost surrounds me
You were everything
I can't remember when
This house wasn't so cold
The darkness always lingers
It sinks into my bones
All this time I've spent here
Wasting, growing old
Soon I will follow you
Into the mold
