📜 Lyrics
I dread to think, just how long its been
Years and years since we let contact slip
The separation makes my grief feel out of place
Here’s my admission of guilt, and a promise to change
Curse every day that I didn't take your call
And now I'm just a stranger to your ghost
I’m drowning
In my shame
I’m drowning
My conscience haunts me
Do you want my grief to kill me now?
I would ask but you’re not here
I'm afraid to sleep right now
Because I’d hate to lose your smile
I haven’t felt this in a while
And I'm bored of just pretending
I'm afraid of waking up
To face a life without your love
But I think I'm moving on
Finding strength to close your coffin
As your face begins to fade
Only memories remain
I broke my promises to change
And now I know that it's too late
Do you want my grief to kill me now?
I would ask but you’re not here
The space you left me
(Do you want my grief to kill me now?)
Proud and glaring
(I would ask but you’re not here)
I'm afraid to sleep right now
Because I’d hate to lose your smile
I haven’t felt this in a while
And I'm bored of just pretending
I'm afraid of waking up
To face a life without your love
But I think I'm moving on
Finding strength to close your coffin
The space you left me (Forever...)
Proud and glaring (...dreaming of you)
I'm afraid to sleep right now
Because I’d hate to lose your smile
I haven’t felt this in a while
And this is more than just pretending
This is more than just pretending
This is more than just pretending
Years and years since we let contact slip
The separation makes my grief feel out of place
Here’s my admission of guilt, and a promise to change
Curse every day that I didn't take your call
And now I'm just a stranger to your ghost
I’m drowning
In my shame
I’m drowning
My conscience haunts me
Do you want my grief to kill me now?
I would ask but you’re not here
I'm afraid to sleep right now
Because I’d hate to lose your smile
I haven’t felt this in a while
And I'm bored of just pretending
I'm afraid of waking up
To face a life without your love
But I think I'm moving on
Finding strength to close your coffin
As your face begins to fade
Only memories remain
I broke my promises to change
And now I know that it's too late
Do you want my grief to kill me now?
I would ask but you’re not here
The space you left me
(Do you want my grief to kill me now?)
Proud and glaring
(I would ask but you’re not here)
I'm afraid to sleep right now
Because I’d hate to lose your smile
I haven’t felt this in a while
And I'm bored of just pretending
I'm afraid of waking up
To face a life without your love
But I think I'm moving on
Finding strength to close your coffin
The space you left me (Forever...)
Proud and glaring (...dreaming of you)
I'm afraid to sleep right now
Because I’d hate to lose your smile
I haven’t felt this in a while
And this is more than just pretending
This is more than just pretending
This is more than just pretending
