Description
Elijah broke my heart under a sodium lamp that kept time with the rain.
A cracked photograph, your cigarette flame, it trembled like a small accusing light.
I haven't lived, I have loved, and I have lost, stamped on my ribs in slow, stubborn lines.
The subway hums your name beneath my feet, a hollow metronome that keeps me in rewind.
Oh Elijah, left me with these midnight blues.
Oh Elijah, left me with these midnight blues.
Your voice hangs soft like smoke above the jukebox, thin and true.
I dance with hope, I dance with fear, then watched you disappear, a lipstick crescent on an empty glass.
A lighter's tiny sun, you taught me how the world could bend and break and still look done.
The corner booth remembers how your laugh would carve the dark.
A snap cassette, a thumbed-out name, the way you left your mark.
I keep the window cracked for ghosts, for chances that won't come.
The city coughs a distant tune, the night plays what you've done.
Oh Elijah, left me with these midnight blues.
Oh Elijah, left me with these midnight blues.
I loved you for all the wrong reasons, and you showed me why it wasn't a good thing.
They're the sentence that refused to learn to leave.
But midnight's velvet isn't endless, and my breath finds other songs.
I fold the lighter back into my pocket, I learn the cadence of my hands.
I call your name and then I don't, I let your echo go to ash.
This is the hour I steady, I trade the ache for something like a plan.
Oh Elijah, you gave me these midnight blues, but I won't sing them all night through.
Oh Elijah, I'll hum a different tune.
I'll make these midnight blues true, into a lesson not a chain.
So raise the glass to what was bright and brief.
The candle that burned fast enough to teach me how to keep.
Elijah broke my heart, yes that was true.
But the cracked photograph is lighter now.
The city keeps its beat, and when the dawn splits open I walk out from under you.
Leaving only footprints where your name once dragged the view.
