[Verse 1]
Found your name
On an old wristband
Frayed blue cloth
Still smells like rain
Ceiling cracks
Trace our plans in dust
I blink once
They both fade
[Chorus]
I am the dust in my throat
Every word you never spoke
Hollow bones in an old coat
Hanging where your shadow used to float
I am the stain on your floor
Footsteps that don’t live here anymore
If I let go
Will you let go?
Or haunt me slow
[Verse 2]
Kitchen light
Flickers like your laugh
Half a mug
Lipstick
Chipped glass
I talk back
To the humming air
Ask myself
Were you even there
[Chorus]
I am the dust in my throat
Every word you never spoke
Hollow bones in an old coat
Hanging where your shadow used to float
I am the stain on your floor
Footsteps that don’t live here anymore
If I let go
Will you let go?
Or haunt me slow
[Bridge]
I keep your letters
In a broken drawer (so careful)
Read the same three lines
Till the words feel worn
Did you mean forever
Or just till you were bored
I can’t tell the difference now
Lying on this hardwood
[Chorus]
I am the dust in my throat
Every word you never spoke
Hollow bones in an old coat
Hanging where your shadow used to float
I am the stain on your floor
Footsteps that don’t live here anymore
If I let go
Will you let go?
Or haunt me slow
(haunt me slow)
Or haunt me slow
