What can I say when the words have yet to be written
Sitting steps away looking our love
That's out in the distance
We both know that there's no promises of tomorrow
So if the sun can't rise, tell me how I could ever let you go

You're not important to me
You're just the reason I breathe
The reason my heart has strings
My lips still sing
I still feel your fingers
Running down my face
I can't replace
The image that you burned
You're not important to me
You're just everything

Another day alone waiting for the life I live now to sink in
Picking up the phone hoping every voice
Is you on the other end
I don't know if I showed you what you meant in the past
But I'll spend the rest of my days
Thinking of ways I should have

You're not important to me
You're just the reason I breathe
The reason my heart has strings
My lips still sing
I still feel your fingers
Running down my face
I can't replace
The image that you burned
You're not important to me
You're just everything

How can I tell you goodbye when you're already gone
How I can I look in those eyes and I feel I ever belonged
And these beats are composing the wrong song

How can I say the words, and would you ever listen?
We're worlds away but just tell me
We can close this distance

You're not important to me
You're just the reason I breathe
The reason my heart has strings
My lips still sing
I still feel your fingers
Running down my face
I can't replace
The image that you burned
You're that important to me
You're everything
