House too big

Verse 1

Her first words cut me like a knife in the rain

“You must look like my brother,” her mother used to say

Now I’m standing alone in a house full of ghosts

Walls echo her name, every thing she left unsaid

Verse 2

The floorboards creak like they know my sin

Every room’s a memory I can’t outrun

There’s a silence that screams when the night comes down

And a heart that don’t know how to be done

Chorus

This house is too big for one man to breathe

This bed’s too wide for just broken me

I pour whiskey at sundown, let it burn my chest

Trying to drown what I love, trying to forget

But the bottle knows her name too well

Yeah, I miss her more than I’ll ever tell

Verse 3

Her shadow still dances in the hallway light

Like she might come back if I wait just right

But the clock keeps ticking like it’s laughing at me

Another damn night of what used to be

Chorus

This house is too big for one man to breathe

This bed’s too wide for just broken me

I pour whiskey at sundown, watch the sky turn red

Talking to ghosts and the words in my head

Every sip’s a prayer, every drink’s a lie

She ain’t coming back, no matter how I try

Bridge

The sun sinks low behind the hill

Same place we swore we always would

I drink to her smile, I drink to the pain

Drink to the things I misunderstood

Final Chorus

This house is too big, yeah it’s killing me slow

Full of love that I lost, full of things I don’t know

If heaven’s real, I hope she’s there

Far from this loneliness, far from my prayers

I’ll keep drinking at sundown till the truth hits me

That missing her… is all that’s left of me
