Lyrics

(Verse 1)
You didn’t leave in a storm, no slammed doors,
Just a quiet goodbye that sank to the floor.
I still hear the click of your heels down the hall,
Each step a goodbye, one after all.

I’m not crying for what we could’ve been,
I’m mourning the quiet where you should’ve been.
Your ghost doesn’t haunt me; it’s the void that does,
An absence so loud, it’s deafening because…

(Chorus)
I’m still here, where you left me,
Holding onto air, but it cuts so deeply.
You didn’t just go, you took the ground from my feet,
Now every step feels incomplete.
I’m not reaching for you; I’m reaching for the pain,
Because it’s all I have left where you used to remain.

(Verse 2)
The coffee’s still bitter the way you liked it,
I pour two cups but can’t bring myself to fight it.
Your sweater’s still hanging on the back of the chair,
A shadow of warmth in the cold, empty air.

I don’t curse your name; it’s the silence I fear,
The way the world feels smaller without you here.
No fireworks, no flames, just an ember that died,
And the ashes it left are still burning inside.

(Chorus)
I’m still here, where you left me,
Holding onto air, but it cuts so deeply.
You didn’t just go, you took the ground from my feet,
Now every step feels incomplete.
I’m not reaching for you; I’m reaching for the pain,
Because it’s all I have left where you used to remain.

(Bridge)
They say time will heal, but they don’t understand,
This isn’t a wound—it’s an empty hand.
You were the thread that held me in place,
Now I’m unraveling, chasing your face.

(Chorus)
I’m still here, where you left me,
Holding onto air, but it cuts so deeply.
You didn’t just go, you took the ground from my feet,
Now every step feels incomplete.
I’m not reaching for you; I’m reaching for the pain,
Because it’s all I have left where you used to remain.

(Outro)
The door is still open; I can’t close it yet,
Your shadow still lingers, though we’ve never met—
Not really, not fully, not heart to heart.
You left, but you’re still tearing me apart.
