Left Behind

You packed your things in silence
Left the key by the door
No goodbyes, no last glance
Just the sound of nothing more
The coffee's cold, the room is still
Your shadow lingers on the windowsill
I try to breathe, I try to sleep
But love like yours runs far too deep
And I’m left behind
Holding all the words we didn’t say
Time moves, but I stay
In the echoes of yesterday
You moved on, like pages turn
While I still stand and ache and burn
You’re gone…
But I’m the one left behind
Your toothbrush still by the sink
Our song plays, I can’t think
I keep the lights on all night long
Pretending you're not really gone
If you ever feel the quiet too
If the silence brings you back to me too
Then maybe, just maybe...
We weren’t meant to end this cruel
Still, I’m left behind
Tracing your name in the frost of the glass
Counting every hour that passed
Since the day we breathed our last
You moved on like rivers flow
But I still stay where love won’t go
You’re free…
And I’m the one left behind
