I see you left a light on, as if you know I won't be home
The key under the mat outside your door
The ghost of hope there might be more
But your ghost has left me cold
So let this be the answer to the question
"Where would we be?"
If you had turned another leaf and said
"This is where I want to be"
This black hole inside of me
Light dying to break free
Thanks to you, now I see
It was a message in a bottle
Sent down water under the bridge
A breath of cold air deep inside my lungs
The question what we might become
But I'm giving up that ghost
Because that ghost has left me cold
So let this be the answer to the question
"Where would we be?"
If you had turned another leaf and said
"This is where I want to be"
This black hole inside of me
Light dying to break free
Thanks to you, now I see
You've got questions, I've got answers
I'm left wondering what comes after
You've got questions, I've got answers
And you'll say I was our cancer
You've got questions, I've got answers
I'm left wondering what comes after this
So let this be the answer to the question
"Where would we be?"
If you had turned another leaf and said
"This is where I want to be"
This black hole inside of me
Light dying to break free
Thanks to you, now I see
