Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You were laughing on the hallway floor Bare feet, paint on the bedroom door Paper plates, red wine on the couch First night in our brand‑new house You said, "This is where our story starts" Hung your jacket on my beating heart Thought forever meant we’d work it out Guess I learned what forever’s about [Chorus] Now this bed got too much space All your frames turned to a stranger’s face You got drunk and you let me down Burned this little dream to the ground I’m hopeless, hollow, talking to the walls Every echo just repeats it all Feels so wrong just breathing here without you In the house I built for two [Verse 2] Your mug’s still by the kitchen sink Lipstick stain I can’t unsee Friends all say I should box you up But I still freeze when I touch your stuff I drive past that bar on Maple Lane Park outside and taste the blame Wonder if you even think of me Or if the truth just drowns in whiskey [Chorus] ’Cause this bed got too much space All your frames turned to a stranger’s face You got drunk and you let me down Burned this little dream to the ground I’m hopeless, hollow, talking to the walls Every echo just repeats it all Feels so wrong just breathing here without you In the house I built for two [Bridge] Will there come a day these rooms feel clean When your ghost don’t climb into my dreams I don’t know how to pack this pain Or love myself again [Chorus] This bed still has too much space But I’m changing out the picture frames You got drunk, yeah, you let me down I’m sifting through the ashes now Still hopeless, hollow, learning how to stand One small heartbeat, shaking in my hand Maybe someday I’ll walk out and leave this town But tonight I’m just not ready To tear this first dream down
