First Thing to Go Lyrics by Hayley Williams

FLOWERS for VASES / descansos & Petals for Armor Deluxe

2021

[Verse 1]
First thing to go was the sound of his voice, ah
It echoes still, I'm sure, but I can't hear it
Was it gentle or cold? Or maybe just noise, I
Heard what I wanted until I couldn't

[Chorus]
And I'm scared to lose
Ah, what's left of you

[Verse 2]
Time moves slow, I just talk to myself, I
Finish my own sentences the way you used to (Mmm)
Why do memories glow the way real moments don't? Ah
My altar is full of all love's delusions

[Chorus]
And I, mmm
And I, mmm
And I'm scared to lose
And I (I)
What's left of you (I)
I should forget
But I love what's left

[Outro]
The first thing to go was the sound of his voice
