[Verse 1: Matt Berninger]

Memorize the bathwater, memorize the air

There'll come a time I'll wanna know I was here

Names on the doorframes, inches and ages

Handprints in concrete at the softest stages

[Refrain: Matt Berninger]

I don't know why I don't try harder

I feel like throwing towels into water

[Verse 2: Matt Berninger]

Get it down to nothing, everything that matters

Fever flashes, eyelashes and traffic patterns

Humidity, history, chemistry and panic

Swimsuits in the windows of electric minivans

[Refrain: Matt Berninger & Justin Vernon]

I don't know why I don't try harder

I've been going down some, some strange water

[Pre-Chorus: Matt Berninger & Justin Vernon, Matt Berninger]

Move forward now, there's nothing to do

Can't turn around, I can't follow you

Your coat's in my car, I guess you forgot

It's crazy the things we let go of

[Chorus: Matt Berninger & Justin Vernon]

It finally hits me, a mile's drive

The sky is leaking, my windshield's cryin'

I'm feeling sacred, my soul is stripped

Radio's painful, the words are clipped

The grief, it gets me, the weird goodbyes

My car is creeping, I think it's dyin'

I'm pulling over until it heals

I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields

[Bridge: Matt Berninger]

What was I even leaving for?

I keep going back and forth

I think now I'm about to see

Didn't know how sad it'd be

[Verse 3: Matt Berninger]

Memorize the bathwater, memorize the air

There'll come a time I'll wanna know when I was here

Names on the doorframes, inches and ages

Handprints in concrete at the softest stages

[Refrain: Matt Berninger & Justin Vernon]

I don't know why I don't try harder

I feel like throwing towels into water

[Pre-Chorus: Matt Berninger & Justin Vernon, Matt Berninger]

Move forward now, there's nothing to do

Can't turn around and I can't follow you

Your coat's in my car, I guess you forgot

It's crazy the things we let go of

[Chorus: Matt Berninger & Justin Vernon]

It finally hits me, a mile's drive

The sky is leaking, the windshield's cryin'

I'm feeling sacred, my soul is stripped

Radio's painful, the words are clipped

The grief, it gets me, the weird goodbyes

My car is creeping, I think it's dyin'

I'm pulling over until it heals

I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields

The grief, it gets me, the weird goodbyes

My car is creeping, I think it's dyin'

I'm pulling over until it heals

I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields
