Lyric

The dust won’t rise, the light is just a curtain

And on the window I write your name

This house is a map traced by your footsteps

The air still carries the scent of who you were

(God…)

I wait for a sound, for the floorboards to whisper

For something to tell me I’m not alone in here

For your silence to speak to me again…

Slip down from heaven, just for one more breath

And save me from this living kind of death

Let me feel the weight I can no longer bear

Let me see the lines of your face again… so I won’t forget

Sometimes I swear I see you in the doorway

A still shadow, just the way you used to be

I try to build a wall against this aching sorrow

But every single brick whispers your name

(Ah…)

And I drown in this doubt that slowly kills me—

Did I fail you? Did I let go of your hand?

Is it my fault you slipped away from me?

Slip down from heaven, just for one more breath

And save me from this living kind of death

Let me feel the weight I can no longer bear

Let me see the lines of your face again… so I won’t forget

Is this silence just a vast abyss?

Or is this where I should search for you?

If I scream your name… until my throat bleeds…

Will my voice reach up there somehow?

Can you hear me falling?

Or is there nothing… now?

SLIP DOWN FROM HEAVEN, JUST FOR ONE MORE BREATH!

AND SAVE ME FROM THIS LIVING KIND OF DEATH!

LET ME FEEL THE WEIGHT I CAN NO LONGER BEAR

AND SEE THE LINES OF YOUR FACE… SO I WON'T GO INSANE!

Slip down…

For a breath…

…please…
