Not Here - Alix

When you’re not here

Left with my thoughts and fears

Can’t find a hideaway

Oh no

You would have chased them all away

You are my safe place

And late at night

I turn off all the lights

And squeeze my eyes real tight

Maybe I’ll find the light

Maybe I’ll see you

(don't wanna talk about it, I don’t wanna talk about it

I hate to think about it, I don’t wanna talk about it)

Maybe I’ll feel you

When you’re not here

The air, the room

The space in between my fingers belongs to you

Not here

My soul is weak

I hear your name and I forget to breathe

Cuz you’re not here

No you’re not here, here

I’ll sleep on your pillow case

Till it’s worn out and faded away

Scream the words that I wanted to say

Please just let me say them to your face

And touch my body with your hands again

One more time before it really is the end

Oh no

When you’re not here

The air, the room

The space in between my fingers belongs to you

Not here

My soul is weak

I hear your name and I forget to breath

Cuz you’re not here

No you’re not here, here

Late at night

I’d pull the covers high

And hold your body tight

You make it all alright

And maybe I’ll see you

(don't wanna talk about it, I don’t wanna talk about it

I hate to think about it, I don’t wanna talk about it)

Yeah, maybe I’ll feel you

When you’re not here

The air, the room

The space in between my fingers belongs to you

Not here

My soul is weak

I hear your name and I fall to my knees

Cuz you’re not here

Oh no no no

No you’re not here

(I don’t wanna talk about it)

(I don’t wanna talk about it)

(I don’t wanna talk about it)
