Lyrics

my window cracked

Frozen light across the white sheets

Saw you in the park

Walking south down Tenth Street

Wrapped in that heavy wool coat

The one I bought for you

Told myself to just keep driving

Instead of pulling through

Pre-Chorus

It feels like a theft

Seeing you laugh like that

It feels like a hollow in my chest

I want my pieces back

Chorus

And I wonder if you tell her everything

If she hears the stories that I know by heart

Does she make you coffee in the kitchen sink

Or are we just a work of art

Falling apart

Falling apart

Verse 2

Tracing all the scars

Jagged lines on my left palm

Guilt is a quiet room

After a week of being calm

You look different in the sun

Holding a paper cup

I should have been the better one

Before the clock ran up

Pre-Chorus

It feels like a theft

Seeing you laugh like that

It feels like a hollow in my chest

I want my pieces back

Chorus

And I wonder if you tell her everything

If she hears the stories that I know by heart

Does she make you coffee in the kitchen sink

Or are we just a work of art

Falling apart

Falling apart

Bridge

Blue turned to grey

Warmth turned to distance

Calling your name

Waiting for resistance

I'm selfish I know it

I'm lonely I show it

Chorus

And I wonder if you tell her everything

If she hears the stories that I know by heart

Does she make you coffee in the kitchen sink

Or are we just a work of art

Falling apart

Falling apart

Falling apart

Falling apart
