Текст песни
I pack your silence in a cardboard box
The books you left, your old grey socks
The key you had no longer fits the door
A different shape than it was before
I trace the line where your picture hung
A faded mark where our story sung
I'm not asking you to stay, I'm asking why
The strongest flames are the first to die
We built a world on "maybe" and "someday,"
But "someday" came and took you away
I'm learning how to breathe this new, thin air
Filled with the ghost of the love we used to share
I see your face in the steam of my tea
A quiet wave in a silent sea
My phone feels heavy, waiting for a call
That I know won't come, and that says it all
I'm not angry, just terribly tired
Of fixing a bridge that you have already fired
I'm not asking you to stay, I'm asking why
The strongest flames are the first to die
We built a world on "maybe" and "someday,"
But "someday" came and took you away
I'm learning how to breathe this new, thin air
Filled with the ghost of the love we used to share
One day, this box will find the attic floor
One day, your key will open someone else's door
And I will be a woman you once knew
A chapter closed, both me and you
But the scar you left is a map I now hold
A story of love that was brave and bold
So go and find your new, bright day
I have my own to find along the way
A different shape, but I am standing tall
I learned to love at all
