Memory Palace ft. Jenny Owen Youngs Lyrics

Skyline's slowly slipping out of sight

In darkness, in the distance

With the room where I thought, every night

I knew you, the true you

But, love, the light around that picture's going dim

So before the sweetest memories cave in

I'm not giving up, just giving in

Yeah, I'm leaving, I'm leaving

I still love you, so I'm leaving

Tonight

I've been changing, I know you can tell

My hands shake, your heart aches

Bodies slowly swap out every cell

Rearrange us into strangers

Until the person who you are is not who you've been

So before the sweetest memories cave in

Let's not let the bitter end begin

So I'm leaving, I'm leaving

I still love you, so I'm leaving

Tonight

Come on, come on

We both know that the dark has set on

Come on, come on

And the storm's gonna hit before long

So when you get this, I'll already be gone

Remember all the sweetness after I'm gone
