your voice is playing in my head
with the mess i left unsaid
your jackets on the chair
funny how its quiet when you're everywhere

used to laugh till we couldn't breath
scroll through old memories
summer nights, they don't mean much now
just echoes in an empty house

flicker then you're gone
i reach but you move on
you stay just long enough
to leave me chasing dust

photos stacked in crooked frames
never meant to lose those days
your shoes are by the door
funny how i don't know what i'm waiting for

walk the streets we used to name
god it still all feels the same
breath in and count to four
stop like we did before

flicker then you're gone
i reach but you move on
you stay just long enough
to leave me chasing dust
echo what we were
replay every word
let go what you must
and leave me chasing dust

trace the steps, look ahead, let go
let go of what we said
let go of what we said
trace the steps, look ahead

flicker then you're gone
i reach but you move on
you stay just long enough
to leave me chasing dust
echo what we were
replay every word
let go what you must
and leave me chasing dust

Chasing Dust
