lyrics

I didn't expect to be in this room again
500 square feet of who I was before we met
And it scares me that I can't conjure a single memory to make it through
I could have stayed home and died

Saw you delete all your pictures of me
But you're still here reading all my stories
Set profile to private; I don't wanna feel like I'm writing them for you
Please understand, it's not that I wanna hide

What's to see?
A portrait done
And packed away in boxes on the floor

What's to say?
A lifetime gone
At the end of the parkway where we drove before

Here I am in this room again
I'm not the one I was before we met
I placed the mirror beside the bed so I'd have some else to greet
And for now, they're all that I need
That's to say there's no one else to see

What's to say?
A love undone
And packed away in boxes on the floor

What's to dream?
A lifetime gone
At the end of the parkway where we drove before

What's left to see?
A portrait of me
That's packed away beyond your attic door

What's left to say?
A lifetime away
At the place where you had dropped me off
The end of the parkway
