lyrics

I think accepting the truth hurts the most
You try to run away, but the pain keeps you close
And when the dust settles, when grief comes home
It’ll harden your soul and leave you alone
It’s every time I pick up the phone
I try to call your number, but nobody’s home
Back when death came early to collect your bones
I felt my blood run cold
Everything here feels old

And I’ve been watching the rain on the lake
That place you found peace in is showing its age
There’s a hollow sentiment like something will change
But I’m still holding onto my regrets
I wish you could have stayed
I just wish you could have stayed

And in every place you used to be
There’s a void with your shape and it stays haunting me
There’s this reflection that brings me to my knees
I want to believe that peace can come eventually

I see you in everything
I just wish I would’ve spent more time
And it’s haunting me
The name we share, haunting me

And I’ve been watching the rain on the lake
That place you found peace in is showing its age
There’s a hollow sentiment like something will change
But I’m still holding onto my regrets
I wish you could have stayed
I just wish you could have stayed
I wish that you could have stayed

For every day that I sleep away
There’s a night spent lying awake
Thinking of everything I could’ve changed
I’m noticing the distance I placed in the way

And for every day I should’ve spent on the lake
I’m sorry that I never saw it your way
I just wanted all of my selfish things
But missed out on days with you, living your dream
And for every day that I write you a song
There’s a thousand more I spend collecting thoughts
Of the person who raised me and the name that we share
and Twelve Eighty-Nine, how I wish she’d reach the air

And for every day that I sleep away
I’m sorry that I never saw it your way
Thinking of everything I could’ve changed
I’m noticing the distance I placed in the way
