Empty Passenger Seat

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your jacket in my car Still on the back seat, still there I found your old arcade token In the ashtray by the gearshift We swore we'd never grow apart Right there, under that summer rain Now I drive past all our places And your laugh cuts through the lane [Pre-Chorus] I still talk out loud sometimes Like you might answer back Still hold the hard parts in my chest Where you used to know the map [Chorus] I miss my best friend I miss my best friend No one knew me like you did No one knew me like you did You held the locked door You held the whole truth I miss my best friend I never found another you [Verse 2] Years stacked up like folded clothes In the dark at the end of the bed I told a thousand faces stories But never the ones I kept Some nights I almost call your name When something breaks me in two Then I bite down on the silence Like that's the only thing left to do [Pre-Chorus] I still save the deepest parts For a voice that isn't here And every new hand feels small When it reaches for my fear [Chorus] I miss my best friend I miss my best friend No one knew me like you did No one knew me like you did You held the locked door You held the whole truth I miss my best friend I never found another you [Bridge] Maybe grief just learns my shape Maybe that's what time can do It can smooth the sharpest edges But it can't make me lose you If there is a place beyond this Save a seat, save a light I've got a hundred things unspoken And I still bring them every night [Chorus] I miss my best friend I miss my best friend No one knew me like you did No one knew me like you did You held the locked door You held the whole truth I miss my best friend I never found another you [Outro] Still got your ghost in the passenger seat Still got your name in the parts of me I miss my best friend I never found another you
