[Verse 1]
Tiny socks
Still in the drawer
Name on the wall
Nobody answers
I fold the blanket
Just to unfold
Like if I smooth the creases
It changes the past
[Chorus]
Death in my hands
Empty crib in the corner
Pain in my chest
Like it’s tearing through the floorboards
Where did it go wrong
Tell me
Where did it go wrong
This family of mine
Feels like a house that’s gone hollow
[Verse 2]
Kitchen light buzzing
Midnight
I’m awake
Staring at the bottle
Never used
Still sealed
Their laugh that I imagined
Stuck in my throat
Everybody saying “time”
But the clock stays still
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I set one more place
At a table that stays the same
Say your name out loud
Just to sit inside the ache
I’m still your mother
Even with these empty arms
I carry you in every room
Even when it’s dark
[Chorus]
