Lyrics

Verse 1

(Female)

The calendar page is curled at the corner

Ten months

I count every minute

Washing your salt off my sweater

Watching the morning turn cold

(Male)

My shadow is wider than I am

Left side of the mattress feels like an island

I look for a signal

Something I can hold

Pre-Chorus

(Duet)

Every road we mapped is overgrown

We build these walls of broken stone

Asking why

Asking who

Asking how

Chorus

(Female)

The center is missing from the frame

I say it aloud

I scream your name

(Male)

I scream your name

(Duet)

Waiting for a sound that never arrives

Counting the casualties of our lives

How do I stop this ache

How do I stop this ache

Verse 2

(Male)

Bitter birds build nests in my rafters

Twigs and string

Scraps of what we had

You left a glass by the sink

Drying in the gray afternoon

(Female)

The handle is loose on the front door

Rattle

Click

Silence is louder than the street

Thinking of your messy hair

Hoping you walk in the room

Pre-Chorus

(Duet)

Every road we mapped is overgrown

We build these walls of broken stone

Asking why

Asking who

Asking how

Chorus

(Female)

The center is missing from the frame

I say it aloud

I scream your name

(Male)

I scream your name

(Duet)

Waiting for a sound that never arrives

Counting the casualties of our lives

How do I stop this ache

How do I stop this ache

Bridge

(Male)

If I find the missing piece

(Female)

Will the bleeding finally cease

(Male)

Give me one more hour

(Female)

Give me one more night

(Male)

One more word

(Female)

One more try

(Duet)

It hurts just to be alive

Chorus

(Female)

The center is missing from the frame

I say it aloud

I scream your name

(Male)

I scream your name

(Duet)

Waiting for a sound that never arrives

Counting the casualties of our lives

How do I stop this ache

How do I stop this ache

Outro

(Female)

Searching for the answer

(Male)

Tired of the searching

(Female)

Just a little more pain

(Duet)

Just a little more pain

(Female)

I still love you

(Male)

I still love you

(Duet)

I do

I do
