Embers Video (MV)

Hello partner, hello baby
I know we're not supposed to talk to each other lately and I
I haven't slept and I know, I should let it rest, but I
I got a few things been weighing down my chest

I remember the first time I ever saw you
You were floating down that hallway with those braids draped around you
And my, world exploded and my heart it changed its shape
And I knew, if I could hold you I would never walk away

But I fell for the lies of my heart

You're still part of me
I don't want to pray it away
I'm smiling with you but you're gone
All the while, time keeps rolling on

Quietly screaming, talking to myself
I bet you're trying to forgive me
The lines across my face are fessing up

I'm saying sorry for the shit you walked through,
I'm scared for the day to come when I don't recognize you
I burned my hands up, saving embers
Trying to cling to all the things I can remember

Like that one time in your backyard when I got way too stoned
I said something so f*cking stupid I just wanted to be alone
But you held me 'til I came down and you said you understand
And I never got to thank you for every time you held my hand

Now I pine while the thoughts leave my head

You're still part of me
I don't want to pray it away
I'm smiling with you but you're gone
All the while, time keeps rolling on

Quietly screaming, talking to myself
I bet you're trying to forgive me
The lines across my face are fessing up
I don't want to haunt you
Just need to tell you that every second you're still

Part of me
I don't want to pray it away
I'm smiling with you but you're gone
All the while, time keeps rolling on

Quietly screaming, talking to myself
I bet you're trying to forgive me
The lines across my face are fessing up
