I Talk to the Ceiling - A Song for Anyone Missing Someone

Описание: What do you say to the person who isn't there anymore? "I Talk to the Ceiling" is a song about the words we leave unsaid and the silence that follows.

lyrics:

Verse 1
The room is quiet after dark
Your side still looks the same
I say your name without a sound
Like it forgot its weight
I practice lines I’ll never use
They circle in my head
Every thought comes back to me
Before it’s ever said
Pre-Chorus
I leave the light on just in case
You’re listening somewhere
Chorus
I talk to the ceiling
Like it knows your face
I tell it everything
I couldn’t say to you
The words keep falling
But they don’t land anywhere
I’m asking all these questions
With no one there
Yeah, I talk to the ceiling
And it answers just like you
Verse 2
Your jacket’s hanging by the door
It still smells like your skin
I stand right where we used to stand
And fill the space again
I replay every almost-word
Every paused goodbye
Wonder if you hear me now
Or if it’s just my mind
Pre-Chorus
The night feels wide and unfinished
Like we are too
Chorus
I talk to the ceiling
Like it knows your face
I tell it everything
I couldn’t say to you
The silence listens
But it never tells the truth
I’m reaching out for something
I already lost to you
Yeah, I talk to the ceiling
‘Cause it’s the closest thing to you
Bridge
If you walked in, I’d probably freeze
Forget the speech I wrote
All these careful sentences
Would still get caught in my throat
So I let them drift upward
Where nothing asks me why
Final Chorus / Outro
I talk to the ceiling
In the middle of the night
Hoping you’re somewhere
On the other side
The words keep waiting
For a voice they recognize
Until then I’ll keep talking
To this empty sky
Yeah, I talk to the ceiling
And it never says goodbye
