[ Featuring Madi Blackmore ]
We painted the front door red
You wanted it black instead
We made this house a home
You started working almost every night
So I turned on the front porch light
And go to bed alone
I keep our memories on my chest as a burden
Untouched like the dust on the curtains
The clock on the wall has stopped working
You abandoned me at the lake
And now the trees out the front are slowly dying
I left the photos up of us when we were smiling
You left me with no goodbye and
Yet you're here at our wake
So don't you dare tell me that you were trying
We ignored all of the leaks
You said that space is what you need
(Space is what I need)
But I'm still down the hall
(But I can't see you anymore)
It's my fault that I didn't see
(We didn't see)
The cracks
Didn't hear the creaks
But if these walls could talk
I keep our memories on my chest as a burden
Untouched like the dust on the curtains
The clock on the wall has stopped working
You abandoned me at the lake
And now the trees out the front are slowly dying
I left the photos up of us when we were smiling
You left me with no goodbye and
Yet you're here at our wake
So don't you dare tell me that you were trying
You abandoned the house on the lake
Because the tide went in
All our neighbours will wanna know
What really happened the day I go
But you'll put on one hell of a show
And drown me in the undertow
As the sun hits a wave I swear
I can see a day where
I hit the road one last time never look back again to the place I call
I keep our memories on my chest as a burden
Untouched like the dust on the curtains
The clock on the wall has stopped working
You abandoned me at the lake
And now the trees out the front are slowly dying
I left the photos up of us when we were smiling
You left me with no goodbye and
Yet you're here at our wake
Because the tide went in and out and in
Then it happened all again until the drought
So I turn the light back on outside the house
But the tide keeps coming out
And in and out and in
Then it happened all again until the drought
So I turn the light back on outside the house
But the tide keeps coming out
And in and out and in
Then it happened all again until the drought
So I turn the light back on outside the house
Just in case you wanna come home again
