Everything Inside of Me

Prelude

Late at night the shadows linger near

Footsteps echo memories unclear

A chill drifts through this haunted space

Photographs upon the mantle sing

Empty chairs still waiting for a ring

The silence holds your place

Deep without a trace

I know i'll never see you again,

The only way I keep you is when I pretend

Verse 1

I thought of no one else but you today

But you've gone away

I can't believe no matter how I try

You were the one I lived for, don't you see?

The heart of me

Now I'm left alone wondering why

Pre-Chorus

I still hear your voice inside my mind

Calling from a place I cannot find

Every memory pulls me back in time

To when your heart was mine

Chorus

Where do I go when you're not here?

How do I face another year?

I gave you everything inside of me

Now all I have are memories

I keep reaching out into the night

Hoping somehow you'll be by my side

But every morning brings the truth to light

You're gone, and nothing feels right

Post-Chorus

I still call your name when no one's there

Still turn around expecting you somewhere

I don't know how to leave our love behind

When you're still living in my mind

Verse 2

I walk the empty rooms we used to know

With nowhere else to go

Your shadow seems to follow every step

I find the little things you left behind

And every time

They bring me back to everything we had

Pre-Chorus

I still hear your voice inside my mind

Calling from a place I cannot find

Every memory pulls me back in time

To when your heart was mine

Chorus

Where do I go when you're not here?

How do I face another year?

I gave you everything inside of me

Now all I have are memories

I keep reaching out into the night

Hoping somehow you'll be by my side

But every morning brings the truth to light

You're gone, and nothing feels right

Post-Chorus

I still call your name when no one's there

Still turn around expecting you somewhere

I don't know how to leave our love behind

When you're still living in my mind

Bridge

Maybe someday I will understand

Why forever slipped right through my hands

But tonight I only know the pain

Of knowing you won't come back again

Verse 3

Sometimes I swear I feel you next to me

Like we used to be

Then silence comes and takes it all away

I wonder if you ever think of us

And all our love

Or if I'm just a memory from yesterday

Verse 4

I'll carry what we had wherever I go

Even though I know

Some broken hearts may never say goodbye

You were the one I thought would always stay

But life took you away

And part of me will always wonder why

Pre-Chorus

I still hear your voice inside my mind

Calling from a place I cannot find

Every memory pulls me back in time

To when your heart was mine

Chorus

Where do I go when you're not here?

How do I face another year?

I gave you everything inside of me

Now all I have are memories

I keep reaching out into the night

Hoping somehow you'll be by my side

But every morning brings the truth to light

You're gone, and nothing feels right

Outro

And when the silence finally falls

I'll still be here through it all

Whispering your name into the air

Like you might still be there
