Takes

Lyrics

[verse]

We sit in silence at the kitchen table

Two empty cups where our voices used to be

I read your face like a page I can't translate

You look at me like I'm someone history

[chorus]

Something so tender turns into a wall

Something so certain starts to fall apart

We built a house and forgot the foundation

Now every doorway feels like the end of the start

[verse]

The clock ticks louder than anything we're saying

The bed feels wider than an ocean in the dark

I reach out slowly, half-expecting nothing

You turn away before I even start

[chorus]

Something so tender turns into a wall

Something so certain starts to fall apart

We built a house and forgot the foundation

Now every doorway feels like the end of the start

[bridge]

Maybe we were never meant to hold this long

Maybe the quiet was the first goodbye

I still remember when your name was a whole song

Now it's just a whisper I can't deny

[chorus]

Something so tender turns into a wall

Something so certain starts to fall apart

We built a house and forgot the foundation

Now every doorway feels like the end of the start

## Lyrics
[verse]
We sit in silence at the kitchen table
Two empty cups where our voices used to be
I read your face like a page I can't translate
You look at me like I'm someone history

[chorus]
Something so tender turns into a wall
Something so certain starts to fall apart
We built a house and forgot the foundation
Now every doorway feels like the end of the start

[verse]
The clock ticks louder than anything we're saying
The bed feels wider than an ocean in the dark
I reach out slowly, half-expecting nothing
You turn away before I even start

[chorus]
Something so tender turns into a wall
Something so certain starts to fall apart
We built a house and forgot the foundation
Now every doorway feels like the end of the start

[bridge]
Maybe we were never meant to hold this long
Maybe the quiet was the first goodbye
I still remember when your name was a whole song
Now it's just a whisper I can't deny

[chorus]
Something so tender turns into a wall
Something so certain starts to fall apart
We built a house and forgot the foundation
Now every doorway feels like the end of the start
