[Verse 1]
Found my height on the hallway doorframe
Sharpie scars
Every year
Every change
Pulled the nails from the posters I worshipped
Now the walls look like someone else’s face
Dust in the blinds
Old sunburnt curtain
That crack in the tile from when we fought on purpose
Kitchen light buzz
Late-night cereal
Trying not to wake the ghosts in the hall
[Chorus]
So this is the last night in this house
Every room keeps calling me out
Every corner’s got a version of me
Hiding underneath the carpet seams
I box up the years
But they spill out
Writing our names in the dust on the couch
I’m locking the door
But how do I move out of my own heart now
[Verse 2]
Found that mixtape you made in ninth grade
Wound so tight in a broken case
Played three seconds
Had to hit stop
Couldn’t handle who we were in that song
Stain on the rug from a first hangover
Burn in the deck from the last October
Driveway chalk
Half a hopscotch left
Rain took the rest
But it’s burned in my head
[Chorus]
So this is the last night in this house
Every room keeps calling me out
Every corner’s got a version of me
Hiding underneath the carpet seams
I box up the years
But they spill out
Writing our names in the dust on the couch
I’m locking the door
But how do I move out of my own heart now
[Bridge]
[Band drops to clean guitar and vocal]
Pull the door
’til the click feels final (feels final)
Step off the porch
Like a bad revival (oh-oh)
Turn back once
All the windows stare
Like they’re asking
Will you still be there?
[Chorus]
’Cause this is the last night in this house
Every room keeps calling me out
Every corner’s got a version of me
Hiding underneath the carpet seams
I box up the years
But they spill out
Whisper goodbye to the empty couch
I’m locking the door
But I’m taking you with me somehow
