Lyrics
Verse 1
Midnight on a rooftop in July
Humid air sticks to my skin like glue
Streetlights buzzin' underneath the sky
I got a letter that I never knew
It said your name in cursive on the line
Postmarked from a town I never heard
My heart is pounding steady out of time
Readin' words that cut me like a sword
Pre-Chorus
And I tried to call you back
But the static ate the line
All I got was a whisper
Of a voice I left behind
Chorus
Heavy is the silence you leave
When the words come too late to believe
I'm holdin' on to what we could be
But the night keeps turning on me
On me
On me
Verse 2
Rain comes down and washes off the dust
Every puddle mirrorin' the moon
I still replay the way you said my name
Like a record stuck on the same groove
Now I'm standing where we used to meet
Concrete cold against my bare feet
I trace your shadow on the wall
But the shape keeps fading down the hall
Pre-Chorus
And I tried to find your road
But the map was all misread
Every turn I took alone
Left the tear drops in my head
Chorus
Heavy is the silence you leave
When the words come too late to believe
I'm holdin' on to what we could be
But the night keeps turning on me
On me
On me
Drop
Turnin on me
Turnin on me
Turnin on me
Turnin on me
Bridge
Maybe some scars never close
Maybe some rivers never reach the sea
Maybe we're just ghosts of the ones we chose
Wanderin' in a story incomplete
I keep the letter by my chest
Creased and faded from the rain
Some things ain't meant to be possessed
Some love lives only in the pain
Chorus
Heavy is the silence you leave
When the words come too late to believe
I'm holdin' on to what we could be
But the night keeps turning on me
On me
On me
Outro
On me
On me
Turnin on me
