I'm standin’ in the kitchen

You don't hear a sound

Linger on my mouth

Halfway between a nightmare and a dream
[Chorus]
C#m
What if I’m stuck in this half-life

Tryna walk through your wall for the last time?

If you heard me singin' to you down the hall
Would you even know if I was there at all?

Or should I just let you be

Do you feel me around?

Do you miss the sounds?

They linger on your mouth

Do you feel me runnin' down your spine?
