Lyrics
Description
Elijah, Elijah — not a chain, not a claim, A soulful echo fading into a new refrain.
Elijah — a whisper, then a door closing kind and slow, Midnight's melody becomes the light I let grow.
Elijah — a whisper, then a door closing kind and slow, Midnight's melody becomes the light I let grow.
Midnight coat, cigarette ash on the hem,
Upright bass walking slow like a ghost of wind,
The city hummed our promises beneath the streetlamps' swing,
Elijah, you left a spark that never stopped its sting.
But every time I breathe, your shadow calls my name,
A soft familiar ache that pulls me to the flame.
I loved you for all the wrong reasons, and you showed me why it wasn't a good thing,
Elijah, your name's a song I can't unname.
Late night diner lights, your laugh in the steam of my coffee cup,
Fred's bleeding into the dark, my fingers still reach up,
Whiskey on the counter, your jacket on the chair,
Elijah, your footsteps echo in the corners of my stairs.
But every time I breathe, a memory writes my name in smoke,
A melody that trembles, then it folds, and then it trembles again.
A melody that trembles, then it folds, and then it chokes.
I loved you for all the wrong reasons, and you showed me why it wasn't a good thing,
Elijah, your name's a song I can't unname.
Remember the rain at the station that busted out AM2,
You hummed the chorus like you owned the midnight and the moon.
Horn swells like a confession, your hand warm on my knee,
We danced on cigarette ash and promises that couldn't keep.
Now the radio plays softer, the memory arranged,
I wake and find the street's the same, but I'm the one who's changed.
Hammer and organ hums, a bright bass walks the line,
Raw electric guitar cries, Fred's bleeding into time.
I loved you for all the wrong reasons, and you showed me why it wasn't a good thing,
Elijah, your name's a song I can't unname.
But I'm learning to let your name go with the dawn.
I'll light a match tomorrow and watch ash scatter down the block,
Slow whiskey cleaner mornings, two-stepping past the clock.
Elijah, you were my wildfire, beautiful and mean,
Now I hum a different tune where you used to fill the scene.
I loved you for all the wrong reasons, and you showed me why it wasn't a good thing,
Elijah, your name's the echo that grows softer in the rain.
Elijah, Elijah, not a chain, not a claim.
A soulful echo fading into a new refrain.
Under the street lamps, under the slow church bell,
I fold your name like paper, place it where healing dwells.
Elijah, a whisper, then a door closing, kind and slow.
The midnight's melody becomes the light I let grow.
