lyrics

Spent the day in your vacant apartment
To try and make some sense of this
Shadowplay when the day turned to darkness
There must be some significance

Slate and chalk dust
People don’t just disappear

In your desk, a saint christopher’s necklace
The dresser drawer, that dress you wore
And seven years stacked in six bankers boxes
A horseshoe hung above the door

What you left us
People don’t just disappear

It was New Year’s Eve the last time I saw you
A kiss across a crowded room
From your circle of suitors and saviors
The names of whom I never knew

And if by chance you never knew
Yeah, if by chance you never knew
There’s someone that you mattered to

Seven years
Just like tears in the ocean
And when the smoke cleared
The spell had been broken

Houdini hid the key beneath her tongue

Said a prayer for the dreams that you dreamt here
And the nightmares that you left us with
Say your prayers
If you’re still out there somewhere
Take a moment to remember this
