Everywhere But Gone by Cordelia Cross Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I changed the sheets, I moved the chair,

But your ghost still lingers there.

In every song, in every breath,

You echo like a second death.

The way you smiled, the way you spoke

Still haunts the mirror when I choke.

I walk alone but not alone

You're everywhere, but you’re not home.

[Pre-Chorus]

I reach for life beyond your name,

But all I feel is more of the same.

[Chorus]

You’re in the silence, in the sound,

In every face, in every town.

I try to breathe, I try to run

But I’m chasing shadows of someone.

I’m moving forward, breaking slow,

But you’re the only road I know.

[Verse 2]

I changed my path, I left our street,

But memory follows at my feet.

It’s in the air, the way it bends—

Like time forgot we ever ended.

They say to heal, you have to let go,

But I don’t know where the pieces go.

You stitched yourself into my soul,

Now leaving you just leaves a hole.

[Pre-Chorus]

I fake a smile, I fake a day

But you’re still etched in every way.

[Chorus]

You’re in the silence, in the sound,

In every face, in every town.

I try to breathe, I try to run

But I’m chasing shadows of someone.

I’m moving forward, breaking slow,

But you’re the only road I know.

[Bridge]

I don’t want to miss you anymore

But missing you’s become my core.

You were my pulse, my steady flame

Now I can’t feel without your name.

Even in places you’ve never been,

You show up like a phantom twin.

[Final Chorus]

You’re in the silence, in the sound,

You’re in the weight that pulls me down.

I try to live, I try to mend

But grief rewrites how every story ends.

I’m moving forward, barely whole—

Still haunted by a half-split soul.

[Outro]

You’re everywhere I try to go…

But you’re nowhere I can hold.
