Verse 1
You left smoke in the hallway
And holes inside the walls
Said you never meant to hurt me
Like that fixed it all
You wore your anger like a black coat
Dragged it through every room
I learned how to stay silent
Just to make it through
Pre-Chorus
You said forever with your hands around a lie
And I kept finding reasons not to say goodbye
Chorus
Now your shadow's in the doorway
Even when you're gone
And I still hear the sound of your excuses
In every sad song
You took more than I could give you
More than I knew I had
And some nights I miss the person
I convinced myself you were
Verse 2
Your name still lives in old messages
Buried deep inside my phone
Apologies at two in the morning
Never left me alone
I remember all the small things
The jacket on the chair
How somebody could be everywhere
And never really care
Pre-Chorus
You swore the truth was somewhere underneath your skin
But every promise ended where another lie began
Chorus
Now your shadow's in the doorway
Even when you're gone
And I still hear the sound of your excuses
In every sad song
You took more than I could give you
More than I knew I had
And some nights I miss the person
I convinced myself you were
Bridge
I don't want revenge
I just want the weight to leave
I want to stop looking over my shoulder
Every time I try to sleep
And I want the years back
The ones I spent afraid
Of a fire I didn't start
But somehow had to save
Final Chorus
Now the smoke has finally faded
From the corners of my room
And your voice is getting smaller
Every afternoon
You took pieces I can't get back
But you don't get what's left
I'm still here, still breathing
After everything you did
