The Room Will Know Your Name

[Verse 1] You leave the kettle on the stove A small red light against the cold I read the note beside the phone Three careful words: don't come back home [Pre-Chorus] The hallway clock forgets to move I count the cracks beneath my shoes [Chorus] I keep the door half open I keep the engine cold Every promise spoken Turns heavy in my throat If you come looking for me Follow the sound of the rain I will be gone by morning But the room will know your name [Verse 2] Your coat is hanging by the stairs Dust gathers softly on the sleeves I turn the pockets inside out Find one blue thread you left with me [Pre-Chorus] The hallway clock forgets to move I count the cracks beneath my shoes [Chorus] I keep the door half open I keep the engine cold Every promise spoken Turns heavy in my throat If you come looking for me Follow the sound of the rain I will be gone by morning But the room will know your name [Bridge] No photograph, no final call Just winter pressing through the wall I let the silence take its shape And learn the weight of my escape [Final Chorus] I keep the door half open I keep the engine cold Every promise spoken Turns heavy in my throat If you come looking for me Follow the sound of the rain I will be gone by morning But the room will know your name [Outro] Three careful words beside the phone A small red light against the cold
