Lyrics
[Intro]
Mm
Mm-hmm
Oh-oh
[Verse 1]
You left your jacket on the chair again
I keep it there
Fold the sleeve the way you always did
Some habits wear a person down
I trace the stitching with my thumb
And let the quiet win
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I stay too long
Maybe you drift too far
Maybe we're both too proud to call
[Chorus]
Tell me why I'm still awake
Tell me why I'm still awake
Every room you touched still hums
And I can't make it stop
[Drop]
Tell me why I'm still awake
Tell me why I'm still awake
[Verse 2]
Called your number twice and hung up both
A coward's kind of brave
Your voicemail knows my breathing well
I've worn the same song thin
Played it till the tape gave out
Now silence does the rest
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I hold too tight
Maybe you let me go
Maybe we're both too tired to try
[Chorus]
Tell me why I'm still awake
Tell me why I'm still awake
Every room you touched still hums
And I can't make it stop
[Drop]
Tell me why I'm still awake
Tell me why I'm still awake
[Bridge]
I don't want to be the one who waits
I don't want to be the one who breaks
I don't want to be the one
But I am
But I am
[Chorus]
Tell me why I'm still awake
Tell me why I'm still awake
Every room you touched still hums
And I can't make it stop
[Drop]
Tell me why I'm still awake
Tell me why I'm still awake
