lyrics

The world is still spinning when you’re not around
Forgive my surprise, I hoped I was wrong
And the sky had turned grey and the air had gone flat
But my skin stayed intact, I did not disappear

Now, why are you here, if not for someone else?
Why do you live, if not for anyone else?

I find myself crying ‘cause you’re not around
Forgive my red eyes, I thought you would too
And my heart tried to give while my lungs screamed your name
But my pulse stayed the same and the silence pushed through

Now, why are you here, if not for someone else?
Why do you live, if not for anyone else?
Why do you grieve, if not for someone else?
Why do you breathe, if not for anyone else?

The world is still spinning when you’re not around...
