There's a gaping hole
That no one can fill
You left your mark everywhere
Every tear
Every rainy day
Every memory at all

And I held on tight

And they all say "Let him go"
And I can't say I disagree
All I want is for him to be free
But I want him to be with me

Comforting looks
A crowded hallway
This isn't happening
I move so slowly
This is happening

Fade through the crowd, my love
You left me
I'm well aware

I've been notified.

It is the echo of a missing lyric,

Brown chipboard gaping in the jigsaw.

It is the gasp, foot
