Mama said I'd heal in time But clocks don't move when you're not mine I fake a laugh, I play my part But something's missing from my heart I build a smile with trembling hands Pretend that I can understand How you could leave, how I could stay How love just fades away They call it growing up, I call it pain They call it peace, I call it rain Half-broken boy, lost in the noise Loving a ghost, avoiding the void You moved on fast, I stood in place Still tracing you in empty space Maybe I was too much storm Maybe you were tired of form But all I know is every night I dream in black and wake in white Half-broken boy, never complete Still dancing with your ghost on repeat Mama said I'd heal in time But clocks don't move when you're not mine I fake a laugh, I play my part But something's missing from my heart I build a smile with trembling hands Pretend that I can understand How you could leave, how I could stay How love just fades away They call it growing up, I call it pain They call it peace, I call it rain Half-broken boy, lost in the noise Loving a ghost, avoiding the void You moved on fast, I stood in place Still tracing you in empty space Maybe I was too much storm Maybe you were tired of form But all I know is every night I dream in black and wake in white Half-broken boy, never complete Still dancing with your ghost on repeat
