You and I in Unison

What will I find?
 Some sacred thing to help me handle the tragedy?
 Or did I once, did I have it and lose it?
 No one should ever have to walk through the fire alone
 No one should ever have to brave that storm, no
 Everybody needs someone or something
 And when I sing, don't I sing your name out
 Right at the same time that I sing my own?
 Some days I swear I can feel you splitting the light through the window frame
 The shapes it makes are always warmer, always brighter than the rest of what comes through
 Some days I swear I can hear you sing to me or whisper my name in the slightest way
 It's like the warmest light now laid across my bedroom floor is somehow actually you and not just sunlight
 I have the memory climb down the balcony
 I put a flower on the back of its dress
 It's probably best to forget it
 It's probably best to let go
 I paint it the shade of where the skin and the lip meet
 Only a moment after breaking the kiss
 And I blur out everything else
 That's how I choose to remember it
 Some nights are a lot like the days
 I lay awake too late, I watch the shadows casted trace your shape
 Those silver slivers on the wall then on the bedsheets
 I hear your song in the trees, I finally fall into rest
 Often later when I'm sleeping you show up in my dreams
 Just doing simple things, like buying groceries
 And when I wake up I could swear you must've just left me
 Like you got up to make breakfast or maybe just to get dressed
 But the truth is, you were never there, you won't ever be
 Sometimes I think I'm not either so what do I do
 When every day still seems to start and end with you?
 And you won't ever know, you won't ever see
 How much your ghost since then has been defining me
 I leave the memory up atop the balcony
 I tear this flower from the back of the dress
 It's best this time, I bet, to just forget and let go
 Paint it the shade of where the lip bleeds and blur it out
 I blur out everything else, just blur out everything else
 And let go, and let go, and let go
 ♪
 Everybody has to let go someday
 Everybody has to let go
 I wonder when I will, I wonder
 But if I still hear you singing in every city I meet
 After I blur it all out, our every memory, if
 You never fade with the days, your shape still haunting me then
 Should I not just sing along?
 Should I not just sing along?
 I will sing sweetly hope that the notes change
 But I do not need it to happen, I'm not resigned to it
 And if they never do I'll sing your name in every line
 Just like I did throughout this, just like I've always done
 In every gun, the empty church, and every tortured son
 In all those giving up, in all those giving in
 Until I die I will sing our names in unison
 Until I die I will sing our names in unison
