Testo Waiting Place

How you keep me awake

From miles away

That half of me

The pillowcase
Your fingerprints are in the air

Leading up to empty stairs

Painting walls without you

I can’t hear the way you’d say

I’ll be here, you go away

I’ll be here at a waiting pace

When I’d beg you to stay

With a straight face
The laugh you’d make

I can’t erase
