Empty House

(Verse 1)

The walls still echo all our fights,

Your coat still hangin’ where you left that night.

I tried to fill the quiet with sound,

But even my heartbeat feels too loud.

The pictures smile, but they don’t care,

You’re gone, and I’m still standin’ there.

(Pre-Chorus)

I light a candle just to fake the glow,

But it burns out faster than I can let go.

(Chorus)

I’m not fine, I just pretend,

I keep talkin’ to a ghost again.

The house feels cold, the nights too long,

Even silence plays our song.

I thought love could make me whole somehow,

But I’m just livin’ in an empty house.

(Verse 2)

Your coffee cup still by the sink,

I stare and try not to think.

The bed’s too wide, the air too thin,

Every room reminds me where you’ve been.

You’re the shadow that won’t fade,

The goodbye I never really made.

(Pre-Chorus)

I light a candle just to fake the glow,

But it burns out faster than I can let go.

(Chorus)

I’m not fine, I just pretend,

I keep talkin’ to a ghost again.

The house feels cold, the nights too long,

Even silence plays our song.

I thought love could make me whole somehow,

But I’m just livin’ in an empty house.

(Bridge)

If love could heal, I’d call your name,

But all that’s left is guilt and flame.

I built my world around your eyes,

Now I’m lost in what we left behind.

(Chorus)

I’m not fine, I just pretend,

I keep talkin’ to a ghost again.

I light a match and watch it die,

Still can’t say that last goodbye.

I thought love could make me whole somehow,

But I’m just livin’ in an empty house.

I’m not fine, I just pretend,

I keep talkin’ to a ghost again.

I light a match and watch it die,

Still can’t say that last goodbye.

I thought love could make me whole somehow,

But I’m just livin’… in an empty house.

Mhmmmm

In an empty houuuse.
