Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Empty frame on the dresser Dust on the glass But you still stare Talk to the air like I’m answering You feel me standing there Faded coat on the chair by the doorway Phone lights up with my name at night You keep checking like I might text back You leave a space on my side [Chorus] I will never leave you Even when I’m gone I’m not gone I’m the thought that cuts through Every quiet hour before dawn I’m the breath behind you When you shake and say you’re fine Even when I’m gone I’m still in your mind I’ll be around forever Tied to your life [Verse 2] You wear my ring on a chain ‘round your collar Black lace tangled with silver steel Talk to the dark Ask it your questions You know I hear You know I’m real Burnt-out candles on the kitchen table Wax like tears on the checkered cloth You drink my coffee Too strong Too bitter You laugh and then you’re lost [Chorus] I will never leave you Even when I’m gone I’m not gone I’m the thought that cuts through Every quiet hour before dawn I’m the breath behind you When you shake and say you’re fine Even when I’m gone I’m still in your mind I’ll be around forever Tied to your life [Bridge] [Drums swell Guitars heavier Dual vocals] When the nights get loud in your chest (oh) When the room tilts Can’t catch your breath Call my name Let it tear your throat I’ll be the weight that keeps you afloat When you curse my name in the dark Blame these chains around your heart Hate me Love me It’s all the same I’m carved in every vein [Chorus] I will never leave you Even when I’m gone I’m not gone I’m the thought that cuts through Every quiet hour before dawn I’m the breath behind you When you shake and say you’re fine Even when I’m gone I’m still in your mind I’ll be around forever Tied to your life [Outro] [Violin and piano return Drums distant] Keep that frame on the dresser Talk to the air sometimes Even when I’m gone I’m not gone I’m the ghost in your eyes
