[Verse 1]
You wrote your name in fog
On the bus window at dawn
Mismatched socks, chipped black paint
Saying everything’s fine, but you’re gone
[Chorus]
Lantern
in the back of my mind
Velocity
when you crossed that line
Whisper
through the cracks in my skin
Granite orbit
pulling me in
Lantern
and I circle again
Granite orbit
pulling me in
[Verse 2]
You left your key, took my coat
Said you’d freeze before you’d stay
Now every street sign
Feels like it’s spelling your name the wrong way
[Chorus]
Lantern
in the back of my mind
Velocity
when you crossed that line
Whisper
through the cracks in my skin
Granite orbit
pulling me in
Lantern
and I circle again
Granite orbit
pulling me in
[Bridge]
You said “don’t wait up”
(so I never sleep)
You said “don’t look back”
but I still peek
Round and around
same old script
Soft little promise
hard-tight grip
[Chorus]
Lantern
in the back of my mind
Velocity
when you crossed that line
Whisper
through the cracks in my skin
Granite orbit
pulling me in
Lantern
yeah I circle again
Granite orbit
pulling me in
