Last Door Key

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You wore my name like smoke Held it, then let it go I gave you all my hours You counted doors to other rooms You knew my hands by heart I knew your empty laugh We both saw the crack in us Still stood there anyway [Pre-Chorus] I can’t fix your pride You can’t fix my need We keep the same wound Calling it love, calling it need [Chorus] Come back to the empty house Come back where I stayed You only miss me late When the room starts to fade Come back to the empty house You reach for what you left I was everything to you You were just what I had [Verse 2] You went and got your fill Over and over again Took my softest mornings Like they’d always wait for you Then one last night You came and found the lock But I was gone for good And the light stayed off [Pre-Chorus] I can’t fix your pride You can’t fix my need We keep the same wound Calling it love, calling it need [Chorus] Come back to the empty house Come back where I stayed You only miss me late When the room starts to fade Come back to the empty house You reach for what you left I was everything to you You were just what I had [Bridge] Now you stand in the hall With your hands full of rain Looking at the space I made For a man who never came I still know your face And you know mine too We could never change each other So I changed the door on you [Final Chorus] Come back to the empty house Come back where I stayed You only miss me late When the room starts to fade Come back to the empty house You reach for what you left I was everything to you You were just what I had Come back to the empty house Now the key won’t turn You came for what you ignored And found nothing left to return
