Echo in the Corner of the Room

I thought we had grown up but I've been broken

I never learned to be as tough as this

A sorry doesn't do you any justice

So who the fuck am I to say you're missed

Nobody ever told me you were perfect

I barely even knew ya when you passed

A death is only half as strong as you were

And your teeth were bright horizons when you laughed

It's hard to keep a memory in the past

But I knew

That you'd come through

As an echo in the corner of the room

And you do

Well did you find a point in all this talking

Is there anything you wish you could have kept

There's a drug for every pain that you are feeling

You can drink yourself to sleep where Jesus wept

Like a city in the heat with wet cement

But I knew

That you'd come through

As an echo in the corner of the room

Now I know

That you let go

Cause the echo sounds a lot more like the you

I know, oh
