The Missing Game (lyrics)

[verse]
You're chasing ghosts
in this missing game
don't look down
no, don't look down
stay a while and maybe we'll forget
all these things we've learned to hate
before I leave you standing
at the edge of lonely

[Verse 2]
I don't miss you like a lover should
I'm done making love to ghosts
under these bruised skies
that spell out our names
in a broken you me tragedy

[Chorus]
We hold on
when we should let go
I'm lost without you
in this missing game
missing game

I hold on
when I should let go
I'm lost without you
in this missing game

[Verse 3]
So don't look down
no, don't look down  
at the fractured bones of me
that want to break your ribs open  
no, don't look at me
as you stay a while
lost in these memories
hoping we'll forget
all these things we've learned to hate

[Chorus]
We hold on
when we should let go
I'm lost without you
in this missing game
missing game

I hold on
when I should let go
I'm lost without you
in this missing game

[Verse 4]
I don't miss you
no, I don't miss you
it's just a missing game
a missing game

My heart craves history
but my head is telling me
to let go
of all the things I loved
and all the things I hated
in this broken you me tragedy

[Outro]
I don't miss you
I don't miss you
I don't miss you
It's just a missing game
I don't miss you
I don't miss you
I don't miss you
It's just a missing game
(It's just a missing game)
