I traced your shadow
On the water's edge
A fleeting warmth i never had to beg
You smiled at me like rain in mid july
So beautiful so never meant to be mine
The city sleeps i'm wide awake again
Rewinding every word you never said
I build a world where you and i collide
But every door i open you're outside
And i'm falling through the silence
Where your name becomes a siren
Pulling me under
Pulling me under
If i'm lost inside the whirlpool
Where do i go to find you
I call your heart by my name name
But i'm never with you
Never with you
I scream until the tide breaks
But you're sure i can't reach
I call your heart by my name
But i'm never with you
Never with you
I kept the polaroid you didn't know
I took your laughter frozen
Like a half red book
There's a version of us
Somewhere in the stars
Where loving you doesn't leave
These kinds of scars
I wear your absence like a second skin
A constant ache that
Settles deep within
You're everywhere and
Nowhere all at once
The sweetest ghost i'll never outrun
And i'm drowning in the silence
Where your name becomes a siren
Pulling me under
I'm lost inside the whirlpool
Where do i go to find you
I call your heart by my name
But i'm never with you
Never with you
I scream until the tide
Breaks but you're sure i can't reach
I call your heart by my name
But i'm never with you
Never with you
And maybe in another life
I am the one who gets to stay
Maybe in another timeline
You turn around and say my name
But not today
The whirlpool takes me anyway
I'm so lost inside the whirlpool
Where did i go to find you
I called your heart by my name
But i was never with you
Never with you
Never with you
