Lyrics

Verse 1

Four walls watched us fall apart

Your silhouette burned through the dark

I counted every door you slammed

Every promise turned to sand

Pre-Chorus

Now I sleep with just the fan on

Nobody's calling my name at dawn

Chorus

I don't miss the fire

Just the warmth when you were tired

I don't miss the war

Just your head against my chest

I don't miss the smoke

Just the way you pulled me close

Goodbye was the best part

But damn I miss your skin on mine

Verse 2

You'd twist my words like razor wire

Build your case and set the fire

Still I'd crawl back to your bed

Tangled up with what you said

Pre-Chorus

Now I'm driving with the windows down

Nobody's waiting when I get to town

Chorus

I don't miss the fire

Just the warmth when you were tired

I don't miss the war

Just your head against my chest

I don't miss the smoke

Just the way you pulled me close

Goodbye was the best part

But damn I miss your skin on mine

Bridge

I'm free now

Free now

But freedom wears a hollow crown

And some nights

Some nights

I reach across the empty side

And find nothing

Nothing

Just the shape you left behind

Guitar Solo

Chorus

I don't miss the fire

Just the warmth when you were tired

I don't miss the war

Just your head against my chest

I don't miss the smoke

Just the way you pulled me close

Goodbye was the best part

But damn I miss your skin on mine

Outro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Skin on mine
