You Left, I Stayed

Still pour your favorite cup of tea
Your name’s still in my lock screen
Still skip the songs we used to sing
But they play in my head on repeat
I walk the same streets, wear the same coat
Even the air feels like a quote
You’re gone, but this house still speaks
With your laughter in the floorboard creaks
You left, I stayed
You healed, I fray
You moved, I replay
I’m stuck in yesterday
You flew, I fade
Still wake up the same
Still call out your name
You left, I stayed
I changed the sheets, but not the scent
Tried dating apps, none made a dent
I laughed last night, but it felt fake
Still eat your snack by my mistake
They say time helps, I say “when?”
Every day feels like back then
I lost the map the day you left
Now I just exist, barely at best
You left, I stayed
You healed, I fray
You moved, I replay
I’m stuck in yesterday
You flew, I fade
Still wake up the same
Still call out your name
You left, I stayed
Your ghost’s in my toothbrush glass
Your voice in every bus that passed
You’re done with us, I still pretend
Like maybe we’ll restart again
You left, I stayed
You healed, I fray
You moved, I replay
I’m stuck in yesterday
You flew, I fade
Still wake up the same
Still call out your name
You left...
I stayed...
