And dragged this broken suitcase through the rain

While you sleep alone tonight
I'll be up 'til the morning light
So for now things will be alright
Now the place that felt like home for these past 7 months
Is nothing but a number on a door in a street that felt familiar once.

While you sleep alone tonight
I'll be up 'til the morning light
So for now things will be alright
I know soon there will be a day
When these glazed eyes will fade away
Because the truth is I'm not okay
I will start again, I will retrace every step.
