Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I left my coat beside the chair
The one you said you’d always wear
I didn’t pack the photos up
Just turned the key and gave it up
[Pre-Chorus]
You didn’t ask me why I left
But maybe that was for the best
We both had lines we wouldn’t cross
And staying felt like bigger loss
[Chorus]
I couldn’t stay longer
Though part of me tried
It wasn’t your fault
I just slowly died
[Verse 2]
You said you’d call, I said okay
But knew we had no words to say
We drained the love, we drained the light
And kept it going out of fright
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s nothing left I wish you knew
No bitter line, no harsh review
But staying felt like breaking slow
And leaving was the kindest go
[Chorus]
I couldn’t stay longer
Though part of me tried
It wasn’t your fault
I just slowly died
[Bridge]
Some hearts give more than they receive
And mine just needed space to grieve
And if you ever think of me
Just know I left to set me free
[Chorus]
I couldn’t stay longer
Though part of me tried
It wasn’t your fault
I just slowly died
[Outro]
