Lyrics

Elbows on the table
Feet can't reach the floor
Forks scrape like quiet thunder
Names float back and forth
"Pass the salt"
"Take the bread"
Voices cross my chest
Like I'm just empty air instead
Frames along the plaster wall
Hold a house that once knew me
Every year a shrinking corner
Every crop cuts out my cheek
They talk around an invisible boy
Pass the plates through a ghost-shaped space
Every laugh goes right through my ribcage
Every story skips my name
In this room I fade like a whisper
But inside I'm loud as a storm
I still exist
I still exist
Just not for them anymore
Click, flash, new birthday picture
I'm a shoulder in the side
Cut me out with careful fingers
Then hang the happier lie
Little toy lion on the placemat
Paint chipped from my teeth
Only eyes that ever find me
Yellow plastic, staring back at me
Look—
I'm here in the chair with the short, swinging legs
Whole life stacked on the edge of these eggs
Pass through me, see through me, talk through my chest
I could choke on my name, no one's hearing it said
I'm the blur in the back of the family frame
I'm the stain on the cloth that you scrub away
If I vanish from the room, do the forks still ring?
Yeah
You would never miss a thing
They talk around an invisible boy
Pass the plates through a ghost-shaped space
Every joke jumps over my shadow
Every blessing skips my face
In this room I thin like the daylight
But inside I burn like a storm
I still exist
I still exist
Just not for them anymore
Darkness falls
But hands keep moving
Mouths keep chewing
Chairs don't scrape
Only my lion's painted stare
Catches mine across the plate
In the blackout I count my breathing
One small proof I haven't gone away
They talk around an invisible boy
Eat their fill in a midnight scene
All the candles drown in the silence
Still they act like nothing's changed
In this room I'm cut from the story
But my heartbeat pounds like a drum
I still exist
I still exist
Even if I'm not their son
Toy lion on the table
Watching while they clear my place
I touch its mane, feel plastic courage
Hold my own hand
Say my own name
