Lyrics

There’s a pressure in the hallway
Where the floorboards never move
Something waiting past the doorway
Wearing the outline of you
I leave every light burning
But the shadows understand
You are gone beyond returning
Still, I feel you take my hand
I held my breath
I counted days
I changed the locks
You stayed
You made a home beneath my ribs
Now every breath belongs to you
I tried to starve you of remembrance
But grief knows how to live without food
I buried everything you left me
Deep enough to be forgotten
But the earth began to breathe
And now you’re growing through the bottom
There’s a cold side of the mattress
That I never learned to fill
And the silence has a language
I can hear against my will
Every room became a witness
Every mirror learned your face
I keep asking for forgiveness
From an absence in your place
I changed my name
I crossed the state
I burned the house
You stayed
You made a home beneath my ribs
Now every breath belongs to you
I tried to starve you of remembrance
But grief knows how to live without food
I buried everything you left me
Deep enough to be forgotten
But the earth began to breathe
And now you’re growing through the bottom
They said that time would make you smaller
They said the wound would learn to close
But every year you grow much taller
And every year I feel less whole
Maybe healing is a story
That the living tell themselves
Maybe I was never carrying you
Maybe I became your grave
GET OUT OF MY BLOOD
GET OUT OF MY TEETH
GET OUT OF THE SPACE
BETWEEN SLEEP AND ME
I GAVE YOU THE PAST
YOU TOOK EVERYTHING
I GAVE YOU A GRAVE
YOU MADE IT BREATHE
YOU
MADE
IT
BREATHE
I CUT YOU OUT
YOU GREW BACK IN
I CUT YOU OUT
YOU GREW BACK IN
I CUT YOU OUT
YOU GREW BACK IN
You made a home beneath my ribs
Now every breath belongs to you
I tried to starve you of remembrance
But grief knows how to live without food
I buried everything you left me
Deep enough to be forgotten
But the earth began to breathe
And now you’re growing through the bottom
You made a home beneath my ribs
Now every breath belongs to you
I tried to starve you of remembrance
But grief knows how to live without food
I buried everything you left me
Deep enough to be forgotten
But the earth began to breathe
And now you’re growing through the bottom
