[Verse 1]
I kept the door unlocked
For your shoes in the hall
Cold tea on the table
I learned to stand tall
You came in half-laughing
Then turned to the wall
I gave you my morning
I gave you it all
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m counting my pockets
Got a little hurt and a lot of hope
You keep looking right through me
Like I’m just smoke
The room starts spinning faster
My heart wants to go
I’m holding the last bright ember
Just to let you know
[Chorus]
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
I’m still here, still burning
Take what’s left of me
I want you, I do
Even when you don’t see
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
[Verse 2]
I washed your glass twice over
Left your name by the sink
I wore my brave face longer
Than I thought I could think
Your silence is a ribbon
Around everything I need
I keep on reaching, reaching
For a hand that won’t reach
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m counting my pockets
Got a little hurt and a lot of hope
You keep looking right through me
Like I’m just smoke
The room starts spinning faster
My heart wants to go
I’m holding the last bright ember
Just to let you know
[Chorus]
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
I’m still here, still burning
Take what’s left of me
I want you, I do
Even when you don’t see
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
[Bridge]
If I’m a door, you’re leaving
If I’m a road, you’re gone
I’ve got nothing in my hands now
But I’ve held on too long
Maybe one day you’ll say it
Maybe one day you’ll know
I was made of all your shadows
And I still let you go
[Final Chorus]
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
I’m still here, still burning
Take what’s left of me
I want you, I do
Even when you don’t see
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
Take what’s left of me
I’m still here, still burning
Take what’s left of me
