歌詞

I kept your name

In a drawer of dust

Folded with the things

I could not say

The room stayed still

Like it knew my part

Every unsaid wound

Wore my handwriting

I never threw it out

I just moved it deeper

Past the bills, past the keys

Past the good behavior

Filed under silence

That is where it lives

Filed under silence

All the hurt I hid

Low in the dark

Where I can’t reach it

Filed under silence

That is where it lives

Your last hard words

Sat in the frame

Next to a glass

With a cracked rim

I learned to smile

With my jaw locked tight

Like a locked-up file

That still knows my pulse

I never threw it out

I just kept it quiet

Name by name, night by night

I carried it

Filed under silence

That is where it lives

Filed under silence

All the hurt I hid

Low in the dark

Where I can’t reach it

Filed under silence

That is where it lives

If I open it now

What spills out first

Your missing apology

Or my own undone grief

Filed under silence

That is where it lives

Filed under silence

All the hurt I hid

Low in the dark

Where I can’t reach it

Filed under silence

That is where it lives
