Linger - Stripped Back

I'm still thinking of the words that I can't say
Like "I miss you" and "I'm sorry"
But you can't hear me anyway
And your scent lingers on the shirt you left behind
But your words disintegrate
As they drift gracefully through mine

Where do we begin?
I can't do this on my own
Let me feel your skin
I never meant to let go

I lay awake at night and slowly deconstruct my mind
'Til I'm buried in this hole
But I'm never left alone
But you still haunt me in my sleep
Is this a nightmare or a dream?
'Cause I wake up to your face
But I still hear the screams

Where do we begin?
I can't do this on my own
Let me feel your skin
I never meant to let go
Where do we begin?
I can't do this on my own
Let me feel your skin
I never meant to let go

'Cause home isn't a place
No, it's a state of mind
I need to feel something from you
So I can feel alive
'Cause home isn't a place
No, it's a state of mind
I need to feel something from you
So I can feel alive

'Cause you still haunt me in my sleep
Is this a nightmare or a dream?
'Cause I wake up to your face
But I still hear the screams

Where do we begin?
I can't do this on my own
Let me feel your skin
I never meant to let go
Where do we begin?
I can't do this on my own
Let me feel your skin
I never meant to let go

'Cause home isn't a place
No, it's a state of mind
I need to feel something from you
So I can feel alive
'Cause home isn't a place
No, it's a state of mind
I need to feel something from you
So I can feel alive
