Lyric

In this room, nothing seems to change

But the silence of you feels so strange

Like a story that just keeps going on

Another morning comes, though you’re gone

All your little habits, your jokes remain

The reasons for goodbye arrive like rain—too late to explain

Parting comes so suddenly, I’m told

My heart is lagging, left out in the cold

The sorrow’s too deep to find a sound

Just silently seeking your name all around

If I could hate you, it might be easier, I know

But kindness is all that my memories show

I’m stuck in the past, frozen in time

While you’re walking forward, leaving behind my rhyme

No need to forget, no need for a name

Not friend, not family, not lover, not same

I’ll hold onto this ache, let it stay

Until this pain itself just fades away

It looks so sudden, this final break

But the love was real, for all it was worth, for our sake

I’ll walk with this sorrow, let it guide my way

It’s the proof that I loved you, more than I can say

In this unchanging town

There is only one thing

That I can’t change—

Still waiting here, the same
