Not Here Lyrics by ALIX

Since ’96

2018

When you’re not here
Left with my thoughts and fears
Can’t find a hideaway
Oh no
You would have chased them all away
You are my safe place
And late at night
I turn off all the lights
And squeeze my eyes real tight
Maybe I’ll find the light
Maybe I’ll see you
(don’t wanna talk about it, I don’t wanna talk about it
I hate to think about it, I don’t wanna talk about it)
Maybe I’ll feel you

When you’re not here
The air, the room
The space in between my fingers belongs to you
Not here
My soul is weak
I hear your name and I forget to breathe
Cuz you’re not here
No you’re not here, here

I’ll sleep on your pillow case
Till it’s worn out and faded away
Scream the words that I wanted to say
Please just let me say them to your face
And touch my body with your hands again
One more time before it really is the end
Oh no

When you’re not here
The air, the room
The space in between my fingers belongs to you
Not here
My soul is weak
I hear your name and I forget to breath
Cuz you’re not here
No you’re not here, here

Late at night
I’d pull the covers high
And hold your body tight
You make it all alright

And maybe I’ll see you
(don’t wanna talk about it, I don’t wanna talk about it
I hate to think about it, I don’t wanna talk about it)
Yeah, maybe I’ll feel you

When you’re not here
The air, the room
The space in between my fingers belongs to you
Not here
My soul is weak
I hear your name and I fall to my knees
Cuz you’re not here
Oh no no no
No you’re not here

(I don’t wanna talk about it)
(I don’t wanna talk about it)
(I don’t wanna talk about it)
