​absence

[Verse 1] Shell of a person Composed on the surface Tell my family I'm sorry You can bury my body Every day I pretend it's okay I'm confined in my mind No, I mean it this time I'ma pack all my things I'ma leave them behind Wrap my neck with regrets That I kept in my chest When I was born signed a deal with the reaper It's funny how I had no choice in it either I hope that you're well, me I can't say the same I've been holding this all, now I can't take the weight [Chorus] I'm the dial tone Of your loved one's phone Memories from long ago Of your childhood home [Verse 2] I've been staying up every night I can see all my flaws in the sunrise Drown in the sheets every day wake up And the room start to capsize 'Cause I could never be anything more than me See I tried and you know that The years go by, I don't know why things change can't go back [Chorus] I'm the dial tone Of your loved one's phone Memories from long ago Of your childhood home
