No Longer There

Lyrics

I'm staring at the ceiling again Counting all the shadows like they're my only friends You said you'd call but the phone is cold Just another story that's already been told

And I'm falling through the cracks of time Trying to make a reason out of every rhyme You're the ghost in the hallway, the chill in the air I'm reaching for something that's no longer there (no longer there)

Found your picture in a dusty drawer I don't even know what I'm looking for anymore The colors are fading, the edges are torn Like a summer day that's weathered the storm

And I'm falling through the cracks of time Trying to make a reason out of every rhyme You're the ghost in the hallway, the chill in the air I'm reaching for something that's no longer there (no longer there)

Maybe I'm better off on my own Building a kingdom on a broken throne But the silence is loud and the walls are thin I don't know where to start or where to begin

And I'm falling through the cracks of time Trying to make a reason out of every rhyme You're the ghost in the hallway, the chill in the air I'm reaching for something that's no longer there (no longer there)
