Pieces we left behind

I let the silence grow between the walls

The air hangs heavy like an old worn thread

The morning light spills but I can't feel its warmth

I count the hours but they're still dead

The clock ticks loud like it wants to say

All the words I never had the strength to say

I'm holding pieces we left behind

On the edge of the room, frozen in time

A whisper's all that's left to find

When I lost you, I lost my mind

And I'll keep them here

These pieces we left behind

The floorboards creak like they still know your name

I trace the dust where we used to lie

A photograph fades but it won't change

I still reach out for something I can't find

The walls don't talk but they echo you

And I'm still here wondering if you knew

I'm holding pieces we left behind

On the edge of the room, frozen in time

A whisper's all that's left to find

When I lost you, I lost my mind

And I'll keep them here

These pieces we left behind

I could let the world go but the weight's too much

You're the ghost in the hall that I never touch

But I feel you in the cracks, in the quiet sound

Every night I hope you'll come around

I'm holding pieces we left behind

On the edge of the room, frozen in time

A whisper's all that's left to find

When I lost you, I lost my mind

And I'll keep them here

These pieces we left behind
