Cold side of the bed

Sunlight cuts through the smoke and the sin

Half-burnt candles, memories wearing thin

Her perfume’s gone, just ashes and air

Her ghost still lingers like she still sleep here

Empty bottle on the floor by my boots

Every drop screams the truth I can’t mute

I reach for her hand out of some old reflex

But there’s nothing left, just a cold-ass mattress

⸻

I swear I felt her breathe last night

Now it’s silence where her heart beat right

⸻

Now there’s a cold side of the bed

Where her warmth used to spread

Just a pillow and my regrets

And a storm inside my head

She left without a sound,

Now I’m screaming to the dead

Yeah, I woke up this morning

To the cold side of the bed

⸻

Her lipstick still stains that whiskey glass

Like she knew I’d wake up and stare at the past

And I’m cursing the dawn for showing me truth

Every sunrise just bleeds her proof

I tear through the room like it owes me a reason

Tossin’ her shit, call it heartbreak season

But the quiet just laughs, it’s cruel, it’s real

And I’d sell my soul just to feel what I used to feel

⸻

God damn it, I still taste her name

And it burns like fire, and it ain’t the same

⸻

Now there’s a cold side of the bed

Where her warmth used to spread

Just a pillow and my regrets

And a storm inside my head

She left without a sound,

Now I’m screaming to the dead

Yeah, I woke up this morning

To the cold side of the bed

⸻

I see her face in the cracks of the wall

Hear her laugh down the fucking hall

And I’d trade my pride, my blood, my breath

To pull her ghost back from the death

⸻

(Heavy, low-tuned guitars rip through — pain turns to rage, then fades into that hollow echo.)

⸻

Now there’s a cold side of the bed

Where love once laid her head

I’m haunted by what she said

And all the shit I never said

She left without a sound,

Now I’m screaming to the dead

Yeah, I woke up this morning

To the cold side of the bed

⸻

The sheets are still tangled,

but the warmth is long gone

And I’m just here

trying to remember

how to sleep alone.
