Left a piece

If I disappeared tonight

Would you feel the room go thin?

Would my chair stay full of ghosts

Where my laugh had been?

I keep a list of little things

That I swear you never saw

The way I held the door too long

The way I took the fall

Tell me now

Would you notice?

Tell me how

Would you know it?

If I disappeared, would anyone care?

Would you say my name when the night got bare?

I left a piece of me in your hands

I left a piece of me in your hands

If I disappeared, would anyone care?

Would you find me gone and still reach there?

I left a piece of me in your hands

I left a piece of me in your hands

Would I find love before I left

In a glance, in a bruise, in a borrowed breath?

Or would it pass me in the hall

Like a song nobody kept?

I wore my heart like a torn-up flag

In a pocket full of rain

I kept saying I was fine

But I meant I was fading again

Tell me now

Would you notice?

Tell me how

Would you know it?

If I disappeared, would anyone care?

Would you say my name when the night got bare?

I left a piece of me in your hands

I left a piece of me in your hands

If I disappeared, would anyone care?

Would you find me gone and still reach there?

I left a piece of me in your hands

I left a piece of me in your hands

Maybe I don't want a rescue

Just a witness, just a sign

That I wasn't made of shadows

I was yours for a while

If I vanish, keep the trace

In the cracks, in the scars, in the empty space

I was here, I was real, I was loud

I was yours till now

If I disappeared, would anyone care?

Would you say my name when the night got bare?

I left a piece of me in your hands

I left a piece of me in your hands

If I disappeared, would anyone care?

Would you find me gone and still reach there?

I left a piece of me in your hands

I left a piece of me in your hands

Don't let it die

Don't let it fade

If I disappear

Say I stayed
