Lyrics
Verse
I wake to shadows
Cold and thin
Your ghost still lingers by my side
The bed’s too wide
The room’s too still
And time won’t bend
It never will
Prechorus
I scream your name into the air
But silence answers
You're not there
Chorus
Why did you go
Why did you leave
You took the air
I cannot breathe
Your scent still haunts the place we lay
My beloved
Why'd you slip away
Verse 2
The mirror holds a cracked disguise
It hides the ache behind my eyes
The clock hands spin but wounds don’t heal
This empty weight
It’s all I feel
Prechorus
I scream your name into the air
But silence answers
You're not there
Chorus
Why did you go
Why did you leave
You took the air
I cannot breathe
Your scent still haunts the place we lay
My beloved
Why'd you slip away
bagpipes solo
Bridge
I’ll carry you until I fall
A shadow etched upon my wall
The world keeps turning
I stay still
My love
I think I always will
Chorus
Why did you go
Why did you leave
You took the air
I cannot breathe
Your scent still haunts the place we lay
My beloved
Why'd you slip away
