Empty Room

[Verse 1]
I still see your shadow on the wall
Even though you said you’d never call
The silence in this house is getting loud
Like memories I can’t shut out

[Pre-Chorus]
I smile so they don’t ask me why
But every night I break inside

[Chorus]
Now I’m dancing in an empty room
With the ghost of me and you
Every heartbeat feels too soon
Like a love I couldn’t lose
I’m still holding on, but it’s gone
Like a song we never knew
Now I’m crying in the dark alone
In this empty room

[Verse 2]
Your jacket’s still behind the door
I swear I almost hear you on the floor
But it’s just my mind playing games again
Wishing you were more than “used to be” and “then”

[Pre-Chorus]
I tell myself I’ll be okay
But I’m not healing day by day

[Chorus]
Now I’m dancing in an empty room
With the ghost of me and you
Every heartbeat feels too soon
Like a love I couldn’t lose
I’m still holding on, but it’s gone
Like a song we never knew
Now I’m crying in the dark alone
In this empty room

[Bridge]
If love was enough to make you stay
Then why did you just fade away?
I’m learning how to breathe again
But it still hurts where you’ve been

[Final Chorus]
Now I’m dancing in an empty room
Trying to forget about you
Every heartbeat feels too soon
But I’ll make it through
I’m letting go, though it’s slow
Like a sunrise breaking through
One day I won’t feel so alone
In this empty room
