Your blue mug is still beside the sink I reach for it before I think The hallway keeps your coat on its hook I turn away before I look You left your charger by the bed A little piece of you instead I tell my friends that I’m doing fine Then miss your call at half past nine I deleted every picture twice Still know the order, still know the time If letting go is what love costs Why does it feel like I’m the one lost? You’re gone, but you’re everywhere I go In the quiet parts nobody knows I sleep on your side just to feel less alone Then wake up reaching for a hand that’s gone I gave you my heart, you gave me goodbye Now I’m learning how to live with the why If you ever miss me, don’t say you do I’m still breaking every time I think of you The corner store still knows your name I take the long way home to dodge the place Your sister sent a message Sunday night I read it once, then killed the light I found your note inside my drawer Three words I can’t believe anymore You said forever like you meant the sound Now forever is an empty house I changed the lock, I changed the sheets But your memory knows where I sleep I tell myself that time moves on Then hear your laugh in a stranger’s song You’re gone, but you’re everywhere I go In the quiet parts nobody knows I sleep on your side just to feel less alone Then wake up reaching for a hand that’s gone I gave you my heart, you gave me goodbye Now I’m learning how to live with the why If you ever miss me, don’t say you do I’m still breaking every time I think of you Maybe I loved the future more than us Maybe we were already turning to dust But I would take one honest minute back Just to hear you say my name like that You’re gone, but you’re everywhere I go Even in rooms where the curtains stay closed I sleep on your side, but it doesn’t feel like home I wake up reaching, and I reach alone I gave you my heart, you gave me goodbye I’m still making peace with the why If you ever miss me, let the silence stay true I’m still breaking, but I’m learning without you The blue mug’s still waiting by the sink I leave it there, and let myself think
