Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1) The room is quiet, but my head’s too loud Your name is screaming in the silent now Your jacket’s hanging by the door Like you might come back like before I trace the cracks you left in me Every word, every memory I lie awake and watch the ceiling break ‘Cause sleep won’t take the pain away (Pre-Chorus) I count the days, I count the lies I count the reasons you said goodbye I tell myself you’ll turn around But hope is getting hard to find now (Chorus) So I wait in the dark, in the cold, in the rain With your ghost in my arms and your name in my veins I still wait like you might walk through the door But you’re not here anymore… not anymore (Ohohohohoho) And I wait every night till the sky turns blue For a sign, for a word, for the truth from you But the truth is a knife that I can’t push away You’re gone… and I’m still gonna wait (Ohohohohoho) and I’m still gonna wait (Ohohohohoho) I’m still gonna wait (Verse 2) Your laughter’s still stuck in these walls Like pictures that I can’t make fall Your coffee cup, still by the sink I don’t use it, I just let it sink Your side of the bed’s still warm somehow Like you were here just a moment now I talk to you when I’m alone Like you never really left this home (Pre-Chorus 2) I tell myself you’re better off But every breath is way too soft Without your weight upon my chest Without the truth you used to confess (Chorus) So I wait in the dark, in the cold, in the rain With your ghost in my arms and your name in my veins I still wait like you might walk through the door But you’re not here anymore… not anymore (Ohohohohoho) And I wait every night till the sky turns blue For a sign, for a word, for the truth from you But the truth is a knife that I can’t push away You’re gone… and I’m still gonna wait (Ohohohohoho) and I’m still gonna wait (Ohohohohoho) I’m still gonna wait (Bridge) If loving you is my deepest scar Then healing feels a million miles far I’d bleed forever just to feel you once But I’m alone with what we were and what we lost You said forever like a loaded gun Pulled the trigger and then you were gone Now every dream just whispers your name And every tomorrow feels the same Ohohohohooooooooooooooooooooooooooo (Chorus) So I wait in the dark, in the cold, in the rain With your ghost in my arms and your name in my veins I still wait like you might walk through the door But you’re not here anymore… not anymore (Ohohohohoho) And I wait every night till the sky turns blue For a sign, for a word, for the truth from you But the truth is a knife that I can’t push away You’re gone… and I’m still gonna wait (Ohohohohoho) and I’m still gonna wait (Ohohohohoho) I’m still gonna wait Ohohoooooo, I’m still gonna wait Still gonna waaaaaaaait Mhmmm Maybe one day I’ll learn to breathe Without your shadow next to me But tonight the pain won’t fade So I close my eyes… and I still wait
