Shade of Blue

[Verse 1]
The screen goes dark, just a blinking cursor
I left the phone face down on the table
We said our worst, then we said our better
Now the room is too quiet, and I'm not able
To pretend this is just another night

[Chorus]
After the last message is sent
After the breath leaves the lungs
There’s a silence where the thunder went
And a story left unsung
I'm staring at the shade of blue
That reminds me too much of you

[Verse 2]
Your jacket's still hanging by the hallway
I didn't move it, didn't even touch it
We tried to fix what was broken always
And spent the daylight hours trying to clutch it
Into something that we used to be

[Chorus]
After the last message is sent
After the breath leaves the lungs
There’s a silence where the thunder went
And a story left unsung
I'm staring at the shade of blue
That reminds me too much of you

[Bridge]
Maybe silence is the honest part
Maybe typing dots was just a stall
To keep from breaking every single heart
We built across the living room wall

[Outro]
Just the hum of the fridge
And the cold on the floor
I'm not reaching for the phone anymore
[Fade out]
