Memory Palace

[Hrishikesh Hirway, Hrishikesh and Jenny Owen Youngs] [Verse 1] Skyline’s slowly slipping out of sight In darkness, in the distance With the room where I thought every night I knew you, the true you But love, the light around that picture’s going dim So before the sweetest memories cave in I’m not giving up, just giving in Yeah, I’m leaving, I’m leaving I still love you, so I’m leaving tonight [Verse 2] I’ve been changing I know you can tell My hands shake, your heart aches Bodies slowly swap out every cell Rearrange us into strangers Until the person who you are is not who you’ve been [Chorus] So before the sweetest memories cave in I’m not giving up, just giving in Yeah, I’m leaving, I’m leaving I still love you, so I’m leaving tonight [Outro] Come on, come on We both know that the dark has set on Come on, come on And the storm’s gonna hit before long So when you get this I’ll already be gone Remember all the sweetness after I’m gone
