[VERSE 1]

I've been searching for the lights I lost in the photograph

In the creases I made to make them fit

It’s a silence you carved

It’s an absence that chokes

It STARVES!

[Chorus 1]

I’m covering for the lies you told

Ghosts in a story I don’t want to name (I don’t wanna tell)

It’s gone (you’re gone)

They’re gone (all gone)

The faults my own

—I'm still learning to breathe in the wreck we caused

[VERSE 2]

I get lost in all my shame

Where the image turned black

In the ash where your hands traced out the truth

But the flickers I chase

Are just stings from the wounds I'll never treat

It’s a neatly piled rubble of a life I get to live

[BRIDGE]

You set the stack, I tapped to go

She refused my call, I’ll never know

The mirror cracked where I tried to mend

And the echo has me on my knees...begging...“PLEASE! NO! NOT AGAIN!” (PLEASE)

[Chorus 2]

I’m covering for the lies you I told

Ghosts in our story I don’t wanna name (NEVER WANNA TELL)

You’re gone

They’re gone (GONE)

And I’m still here

[OUTRO]

Learning to live with the wreck I caused
