Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro — Male Voice, spoken] I never learned how to say goodbye. I only learned how to leave. [Verse 1 — Male Voice] I used to heal the broken ones, Now I’m just broken in the sun My hands were made to hold your face, Not press on wounds in this godless place I wrote this letter forty times and burned it all Because sorry doesn’t catch you when you fall The medic in me keeps on fighting, But the man in me is lost [Pre-Chorus — Male Voice] I know you’re awake right now, Counting every hour I don’t call Baby, I feel every single one of them all [Chorus — Both] I’m sorry for the silence I’m sorry for the war I’m sorry that I loved you And then walked out the door I love you more than everything — And that’s why I let you go [Verse 2 — Female Voice] Three a.m. and I’m still dressed, Your jacket pressed against my chest I keep your voicemail on my phone, Just to hear you say my name — Eleven seconds, then the silence, And I play it all again [Pre-Chorus — Female Voice] You said you’d come back different, But baby, I would love the broken version — I’d learn every scar and every name [Chorus — Both] I’m sorry for the silence I’m sorry for the war I’m sorry that I loved you And then walked out the door I love you more than everything — And that’s why I let you go [Bridge — Male Voice, breaking] I held a boy today who looked like me at twenty-two, He whispered for his mother — I thought of you I am a soldier and a doctor, I know exactly how a body breaks But nobody taught me how to stop a heart From bleeding when it aches I know you’d say: “Come home anyway” [Bridge — Female Voice] I’d take the nightmares, take the silence, Take the man the war made you I just need you breathing, Baby, come home, Come home to me [Final Chorus — Both, slowly] I’m sorry for the silence I’m sorry for the war I love you more than everything — And that was always the hardest part [Outro] (Female): Come home. Come home. Come home. (Male): I’m sorry. I love you. (Both): …more than everything.
