[Verse 1] You left your mug by the sink Still got your name on the tag Three blue shirts in the drawer And I still fold them like you’re coming back Your laugh stuck in the hallway Like a song I can’t outrun I moved your shoes by the door Still trip over what we became undone
[Pre-Chorus] I try to act fine But the floor keeps caving in Every small thing you touched Feels like losing you again
[Chorus] Cut the tape, break the cycle I can’t watch us break Cut the tape, don’t wanna spiral I still feel your ache Say my name like you used to Then leave me there again Cut the tape, cut the tape Don’t let me play it again
[Verse 2] Your coat’s on the back of the chair Your ring in a dish by the bed I hate that the air in this room Still says the things we never said I passed our place on the corner Saw your light in my mind Now I’m home with the door locked And you still haunt me every time
[Pre-Chorus] I try to act strong But the cracks keep showing through Every little silence Sounds like losing me to you
[Chorus] Cut the tape, break the cycle I can’t watch us break Cut the tape, don’t wanna spiral I still feel your ache Say my name like you used to Then leave me there again Cut the tape, cut the tape Don’t let me play it again
[Bridge] If love was a room I left my heart in the door Now I’m standing in the wreckage Wanting less and missing more I know I should let go I know I should be clean But your shadow in the mirror Still keeps reaching out for me
[Chorus] Cut the tape, break the cycle I can’t watch us break Cut the tape, don’t wanna spiral I still feel your ache Say my name like you used to Then leave me there again Cut the tape, cut the tape Don’t let me play it again
[Outro] Cut the tape I can’t watch us break Cut the tape Don’t let me play it again
