Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Your jacket’s still hanging on the same old chair Coffee cup ring on the counter there Talk to the air like you might answer me Swear I hear your keys by the door at three Bills in your name stacked by the kitchen sink Voice in my head says “you’re fine ” I don’t think Every room feels staged Like a TV scene I’m stuck in the take where you didn’t leave [Chorus] I’m driving with a ghost in the passenger seat Eyes on the road But you’re all that I see If I say your name enough Will you breathe? This can’t be real This can’t be real to me I keep slamming on the brakes But I can’t wake up World keeps moving I keep staying stuck If I tear this sky Will you fall back to me? I’m living in a world where you didn’t leave [Verse 2] Your boots by the door Dust on every lace I leave them turned out like you’ll need that space Mom keeps asking if I’m doing okay I just bite my tongue so I won’t say I see you in crowds In the bend of a back In the way someone laughs In the way they stand slack My phone lights up and I still half expect Your name to flash like you never left [Chorus] I’m driving with a ghost in the passenger seat Eyes on the road But you’re all that I see If I say your name enough Will you breathe? This can’t be real This can’t be real to me I keep slamming on the brakes But I can’t wake up World keeps moving I keep staying stuck If I tear this sky Will you fall back to me? I’m living in a world where you didn’t leave [Bridge] [Half-time Guitars drop to a low drone] Tell me this is just a bad cut scene (wake me up) Roll it back Splice you back into my days Every mirror shows a stranger’s face Yours in the glass Then it melts away I punch the wall just to feel something (feel something) Knuckles bleed like it might rewind time If grief is a place I’m nailed to the floor You’re on the other side of that locked door [Breakdown] (screamed) I won’t say goodbye I won’t sign your name in stone If this is reality I choose my own [Chorus] I’m driving with a ghost in the passenger seat Hands on the wheel But I’m losing my grip on me If I scream your name enough Will you breathe? This can’t be real This can’t be real to me I keep slamming on the brakes But I can’t wake up World keeps moving I keep staying stuck If I tear this sky Will you fall back to me? I’m trapped inside the life Where you didn’t leave (where you didn’t leave)
