I Still Hear You

I wake up in the dark with your ghost in my bed,

Your laugh is a storm that still spins in my head.

Your jacket’s in my closet, I can’t throw it away,

It smells like the night that you decided to stay.

Every streetlight reminds me of your eyes,

Every song on the radio is just a disguise.

I pretend I’m okay, but I’m falling apart,

‘Cause you’re still the bruise wrapped around my heart.

I can’t outrun the echoes in my veins,

Every memory cuts like a runaway train.

And I’d scream it all out, but it won’t change a thing,

You’re the song I can’t stop listening.

I still hear you in the silence,

Feel your touch in the rain.

I keep running from the memories,

But they all know my name.

I’d give up every sunrise,

Just to get one more night with you.

But the truth is, I’m still broken,

And I don’t know what else to do.

Your shadow’s in the doorway when I turn off the light,

I see you in the corner of my tired eyes at night.

The coffee’s gone cold but I still pour two cups,

Like somehow, someday, you might still show up.

I replay every fight, every word we regret,

Every “I love you” I can’t forget.

I’ve been holding my breath since you walked away,

And I’m drowning in all the things I couldn’t say.

Your name’s still carved in the back of my mind,

It’s a scar that I’m not sure I want to unwind.

I’d erase the pain if it meant losing you—

Guess that’s the one thing I can’t do.

I still hear you in the silence,

Feel your touch in the rain.

I keep running from the memories,

But they all know my name.

I’d give up every sunrise,

Just to get one more night with you.

But the truth is, I’m still broken,

And I don’t know what else to do.

(Quiet)

I see you in every crowd,

I swear I hear you laugh out loud.

But it’s never you, it’s just my head,

Dragging me back to the day you said…

(Loud)

“I’m sorry, I can’t love you the way that you need.”

And those words still make my heart bleed.

I’m screaming your name into the empty sky,

But it’s just me, alone, asking why.

I still hear you in the silence,

Feel your touch in the rain.

I keep running from the memories,

But they all know my name.

I’d give up every sunrise,

Just to get one more night with you.

But the truth is, I’m still broken,

And I don’t know what else to do.

“Yeah… I still hear you.

Every night.

Every breath.

And I don’t think that’ll ever change.”
