Leaving You Behind

i wonder how you looked the day you were erased

to look down at your heart and watch it fade
did you disappear or were you just misplaced?
left behind with no one else to blame

it's all gone but something lingers on
a place i used to call home
now me, you, and the ghost
looking for that thing we lost
laughing at the way it was
looking for the one we lost

(Are you letting go?
thinking clearer now that it's over
there's no one to blame as we walk away
why is it i just feel so heavy?
what do i take away?)

when you're in a room
it's all that i can feel
get so used to loving what's not real
there's nothing i can hold
no real tears to cry
you can't breathe life back into a lie
