Eve Christina - traces of you

I think I should flip my mattress upside down
'Cause I only sleep on one side of the bed
You left in November, we're not speaking now
But my mind makes up the words you never said
I've still got the blue-tack sulking on my wall
And the tired photos resting on a shelf
Wish I could say I ripped them down the first day
When really they just gave up by themselves
I can't speak for you
But I know I tried my best
I gave you love when I had nothing left
Table set for two
Me and your absent silhouette
So many things that you left behind
Means I can't move on
These traces of you scattered all over my room
Mean I still hold on
Oh god I wish that I knew how to let go
Of these tiny little traces of you
Traces of you
Driving past your road makes my eyes blurry now
I get jealous of the people turning in
But Yasmin lives right over on your side of town
So each time i see her something breaks within
I can't speak for you
But I know I gave my all
Brick by brick I broke down every wall
You know I'm confused
'Cause I've said it all before
So many things that you left behind
Means I can't move on
These traces of you scattered all over my room
Mean I still hold on
Oh god I wish that I knew how to let go
Of these tiny little traces of you
Traces of hopeful diary entries
Sepia summer memories
Lying on the hill
Back when you loved me still
You'll be there when I'm sleeping
So I'm afraid of dreaming
The mornings make me cry
Your tattooed on my mind
So I can't move on
These traces of you scattered all over my room
Mean I still hold on
Oh god I wish that I knew how to let go
Of these tiny little traces of you
Traces of you
