Falling Through Blue

Lyrics

Verse 1
Sleeping in my sweater
Phone face-down on the floor
Half a cup of cold tea
Curtains breathing at the door
You said you’d call on Sunday
I watched every hour crawl past
Now the shadows on the ceiling
Spell your name
Then fade so fast

Chorus
I’m falling through blue
Nothing to hold on to
Every little word you left
Keeps pulling me back
Pulling me back
I’m drowning in you
In everything we didn’t do
Echoes of a promise cracked
Keep pulling me back
Pulling me back

Verse 2
Train tracks in the distance
Low hum under my skin
Scroll through all our pictures
Stop right before your grin
I write out a long message
Then erase it line by line
It’s easier to miss you
Than ask you to still be mine

Chorus
I’m falling through blue
Nothing to hold on to
Every little word you left
Keeps pulling me back
Pulling me back
I’m drowning in you
In everything we didn’t do
Echoes of a promise cracked
Keep pulling me back
Pulling me back

Bridge
Maybe you’re out there laughing
Coat pockets full of keys
I’m here counting tiny fractures
In the quiet
In the seams
If I let you go completely
Will I lose the better part of me?

Chorus
I’m falling through blue
Nothing to hold on to
Every little word you left
Keeps pulling me back
Pulling me back
I’m drowning in you
In everything we didn’t do
Echoes of a promise cracked
Keep pulling me back
Pulling me back (pulling me back)
