How I knew your name
I used to sing it like a prayer
But it sounds cursed now, cuz you're not here
And I wish you well
To wherever you have gone
I'm sure you told me, but I've forgotten

Oh

It seems so cynical to say you're gone
But I've got these brittle bones
And the night is long
It seems so cyclical to stay withdrawn
But I can't think of a better excuse for when it all goes wrong

Well we had our fun
Out by the creek when we were young
Catching lovebugs and coughing up a lung
And I know
That we all have our time to go
But why so early
Before I ever got to know
Who we'd be
If you had chosen to stay with me
If I wasn't so careless
And isn't it a tragedy
That sometimes
You can try to do what's right
And end up still alone
Trouble sleeping through the night

Why'd you have to go and make things so hard

Well there's a ghost
Who sleeps below the broken teeth
It gathers mold
And holds its treasure underneath
Where no one goes
And it tries its best to reap
The seeds of secrets
That it won't know how to keep

If I set myself on fire, will it guide you home

Didn't I try to build a home that we could share
Can you blame me that it fell to disrepair
In your absence, you can't convince me not to care
Sometimes when I'm at my best
I could swear that you're still there

So why'd you have to go and make things so hard
