(Verse 1)
Rain on the window pane, sounds like the city's crying low
Another Tuesday night under the faded neon glow.
Sittin' here, six feet from the silence, but the silence feels miles away
'Cause my head's on a rewind loop of what you used to say.
Remember that broken street lamp outside your apartment door?
It flickered just like we did—bright, then dim, then nothing more.
I trace the rim of this cold coffee cup, a habit you left behind
Searching for the blueprint, the reason you changed your mind.
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm trying to unscramble the geometry of goodbye
It doesn't make a straight line, just a spiral up to the sky.
Did the feeling just evaporate like steam off the asphalt heat?
Or did I miss the memo, the sign that said the ending was sweet?
Now I walk these avenues, they all feel hollow and strange
Like a song stuck on a minor key, nothing's left to rearrange.
Just the residue of feeling, that familiar, sharp, sudden pain
And the sound of your name in the rhythm of the endless rain.
(Verse 2)
Used to share secrets in the dark, whispered promises on the floor
Now the space between us is wider than ever before.
I see your face in every crowded place, a phantom limb sensation
A momentary lift of hope, followed by pure frustration.
I still keep that old blue t-shirt you "accidentally" forgot
Smells less like you every day, and that's the cruelest part of the plot.
How a soul can be woven tight, threads impossible to sever
Then one chooses to just walk away, like you're not a part of them, ever.
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm trying to unscramble the geometry of goodbye
It doesn't make a straight line, just a spiral up to the sky.
Did the feeling just evaporate like steam off the asphalt heat?
Or did I miss the memo, the sign that said the ending was sweet?
Now I walk these avenues, they all feel hollow and strange
Like a song stuck on a minor key, nothing's left to rearrange.
Just the residue of feeling, that familiar, sharp, sudden pain
And the sound of your name in the rhythm of the endless rain.
(Bridge)
They say time heals, but tonight, time's just an anchor I drag along
Every minute a brick in the wall where I know I don't belong.
I don't need the fire back, just a little clarity, a reason
To understand how "forever" became just a lonely season.
(Outro)
Just the neon glow... blinkin' on and off...
Flicker, fade, flicker, fade...
Yeah, that's us.
Just a cold, hard ache.
