The Presence of Your Absence

In the presence of your absence
Gray light keeps leaking through the door
And I'll try to block it out
But this time it's coming down way worse than before
And in the presence of your absence
I no longer wear the mask of love
No longer drunk off your aroma
I have to face things straight on

So when you're feeling homesick
I just hope you notice
That empty space beside you
Just know that it resides by me too
But I'm not bulletproof, and you shot straight through

And in the presence of your absence
To be honest, you know I tried
But if there's one thing I realized
The saddest songs are ones you never write

So when you're feeling homesick
I just hope you notice
That empty space beside you
Just know that it resides by me too
But I'm not bulletproof, and you shot straight through

So when you're feeling homesick
I just hope you notice
That empty space beside you
Just know that it resides by me too
But I'm not bulletproof, and you shot straight through

In the presence of your absence
I crossed lines I'd never cross
I'm starting to think maybe it was a good thing
Maybe, everything's not lost
