Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Woke up to quiet in your sweater Dust in the light like it knew your name Our photos crooked on the dresser Coffee gone cold But I drank it anyway I used to drown inside that bedroom Count the cracks and call it prayer Talk to a shadow on the ceiling Beg the dark to trade me places there [Chorus] I’m not breaking just because you’re gone I’m still aching but I’m moving on After the ashes After the fall I learned to be happy at all I laugh with the hole in my chest Carry your ghost like a crest I’m not better for losing you But I’m living better like you told me to [Verse 2] I feel you smirk when I start dancing Burnt-black cake in my brand-new pan Sing off-key while I’m washing dishes Drop the plate Curse Then laugh where I stand I drive past the hospital entrance Windows down Let the world rush in Your old playlist in the speakers [low vocal register] Every song I breathe instead of give in [Chorus] [Bridge] I set a place for you on Sundays Fork Glass Chair that never moves Tell you stories of the small days How I finally took that trip we dreamed to I toast the sky with shaking fingers Say your name over the clinking glass [whispered vocals] “Look I made it through December” I feel the hurt And I choose to let joy pass [crescendo] I’m still shattered but I’m standing Not erased Just expanding [Chorus]
