Old flanel

Verse 1

Midnight

Salt on the pavement

I saw you leaning on his gray sedan

Smoking

Laughing at something I couldn't hear

Still wearing my old frayed flannel

Cold

Bitter cold

Biting at the heels of my boots

I should have stayed inside

Chorus

But you were the oxygen

The oxygen

The oxygen

I was just a drowning man

Searching for your hand

Where do you go

Where do you go

When the movie ends and I am still alone

I am still alone

Verse 2

Ghost town

Your face is on every corner

Walking past the diner where we used to sit

Empty

You left a crater in the center of my chest

Building walls just to watch them crumble

Down

Way down

Deeper than the lake in July

I lost the map back to your heart

Rap Break

Look

I checked the mailbox like a habit I can't break

Counting up the minutes and the hours of the ache

You said we were a masterpiece but you forgot the frame

Now I'm standing in the lobby just shouting out your name

And it’s heavy

Yeah it’s heavy like the lead in my veins

Trying to find a silver lining in the middle of the rains

But the clouds don’t move

And the clock don’t spin

I’m a loser at the table and I didn’t even win

I didn’t even win

I didn’t even win

Chorus

Because you were the oxygen

The oxygen

The oxygen

I was just a drowning man

Searching for your hand

Where do you go

Where do you go

When the movie ends and I am still alone

I am still alone

Bridge

Maybe I was too loud

Maybe I was too quiet

Maybe I was just wrong

I stayed

I waited

I broke

Now the silence is a symphony of everything we lost

Chorus

You were the oxygen

The oxygen

The oxygen

I was just a drowning man

Searching for your hand

Where do you go

Where do you go

When the movie ends and I am still alone

I am still alone

I am still alone

Outro

Fading

Just a flicker

I’m still here

Wait for me

Wait for me

Wait for me

One more time
