[Verse 1]
You left your jacket on my chair
Smells like summer, dust and rain
I hang it up, then pull it down
Like I’m rehearsing all this pain
I check my phone, then check again
Scroll through ghosts and empty rooms
Every photo, every frame
Just another quiet wound
[Chorus]
There is one pain I often feel
That you will never, ever know
It’s caused by the absence of you
And it cuts right through my bones
There is one ache I cannot heal
You won’t see it, it won’t show
It’s caused by the absence of you
By the space where you don’t go
[Verse 2]
Your coffee cup is by the sink
Stained ring, cracking porcelain
I keep pretending you’ll come back
Just to argue, just to stay
Friends all say I’ll “be okay”
Like there’s a switch that I can throw
But they don’t hear the floorboard creak
Where I still wait for your shadow
[Chorus]
There is one pain I often feel
That you will never, ever know
It’s caused by the absence of you
And it cuts right through my bones
There is one ache I cannot heal
You won’t see it, it won’t show
It’s caused by the absence of you
By the space where you don’t go
[Bridge]
I scream your name into my hands (hey!)
Till my throat burns raw and bright
But every echo dies so fast
Just like us, just like us, just like—
[Chorus]
There is one pain I often feel
That you will never, ever know
It’s caused by the absence of you
And it cuts right through my bones
There is one ache I cannot heal
You won’t see it, it won’t show
It’s caused by the absence of you
It’s caused by the absence of you
By the space where you don’t go (where you don’t go)
By the space where you don’t go
