Empty Hallways Call Your Name

Empty hallways

I still hear your laugh in the back of my mind

Like a song on the radio I can’t leave behind

The streetlights flicker when I walk home alone

Every crowded room somehow feels like stone

And I keep replaying words we never said

Trying to outrun the echoes in my head

Now these empty hallways call your name at night

Every memory burns under neon lights

I smile for the world but it don’t feel right

Since you left, even the stars don’t shine as bright

And I’m learning how lonely silence can be

When the person you miss is the one you still need

Your hoodie’s still hanging over my chair

Like a ghost of a moment still trapped in the air

Everybody says time heals the pain

But the rain hits my window and it starts again

I keep counting cracks across my bedroom wall

Wondering if you miss me at all

Now these empty hallways call your name at night

Every memory burns under neon lights

I smile for the world but it don’t feel right

Since you left, even the stars don’t shine as bright

And I’m learning how lonely silence can be

When the person you miss is the one you still need

Maybe someday this ache will fade

Maybe I’ll stop hearing your name in the rain

But tonight the moon feels cold to me

And your shadow’s all I see

These empty hallways still whisper goodbye

And I’m tired of pretending I’m alright

If love disappears, tell me why

It still keeps me awake every night

And I’m learning how heavy a heart can be

When the person you miss

Is the one you still need.
