lyrics

they said you were dead on arrival
they said you collapsed in the tennis court
they said you were being driven to the morgue
my heart stopped but i was poker faced through it all
you left the world
this mortal coil
and i was left
without joy
we stopped talking years ago
trapped in our little rooms
now you've left yours
and i'm still in mine
let me ask you a question
was there ever a time that i adored you
i can't remember when
i've lost track of your voice
i've forgotten your face
distance has flooded the space between us
i want to say sorry for hating you all these years
i want to say sorry for not doing everything
i was the one who burned the bridges
i was the one who closed my doors
you were just a casualty of time
i guess i never thought i was yours
i want to tell you a story
when i opened your cabinet drawer
i saw your driver's license
i saw the year you were born
and i thought you were so old
and i felt a chill run down my spine
i now know it's the terror of losing you
i now know the terror of you gone
and now i feel like i'm just waiting for my turn
and now i feel like i'm just waiting for my chance
to be carried in a box
to be carried and then burned
for my ashes to be scattered
for my voice to be heard
i now know it's the terror of losing you
i now know the terror of you gone
