Shadows in My Room

Paroles

[Intro] I see your shadows in my room But every wall still knows the truth [Verse 1] I see your shadows in my room Your jacket’s gone, the hook is bare I count the things I gave to you Like loose change scattered everywhere You said forever softly once Then left before the kettle rang I held the door, I held my tongue I held the blame inside my hands [Pre-Chorus] I can’t take back what I became I can’t unlearn the sound of your name [Chorus] I love what I gave you, I hate what it cost I found the point, then watched it get lost I love you still, I hate you too There’s no clean side to what we went through I can’t take back, I can’t undo I see your shadows in my room [Verse 2] The point was never being right It was surviving one more night You turned my mercy into proof That I would always follow you I kept your number, changed the name As if a new word changed the pain My friends ask why I let you in I say I’m learning where I end [Pre-Chorus] I can’t take back the trust I spent Or every hour I called it meant [Chorus] I love what I gave you, I hate what it cost I found the point, then watched it get lost I love you still, I hate you too There’s no clean side to what we went through I can’t take back, I can’t undo I see your shadows in my room [Bridge] Maybe love is not a pardon Maybe leaving is the proof I can grieve the door I opened Without handing back the truth [Final Chorus] I love what I gave you, I hate what it cost I found the point, I’m done being lost I loved you once, I hate you too And both can live where the old wound grew I can’t take back, but I can choose To turn the lock and leave this room [Outro] I see your shadows in my room Then morning comes, and they’re gone soon
