[Verse 1]
It started raining in Brooklyn
Writing to you while I wait for the Earth to start spinning again
Overwhelmed by your absence
[Chorus]
It's a mile to the front door
Took a parachute down to the bottom floor
Going outside feel like going off to war, mm
And I spend most my time now
Just tryna get you off my mind somehow, ooh, ah
We was black sheep in the barn
Found love, broke free, we was roaming on
Got ahead of me, but I was catching up
Got there and you was already gone
[Post-Chorus]
Already gone, uh
Already gone, ooh
Already gone, mm
[Verse 2]
I try my best
Sometimes I get dressed, I feel like a mess
But I get out of bed still, ooh, oh
[Chorus]
It's a mile to the front door
Took a parachute down to the bottom floor
Was gonna meet you outside by the waterfront
But you were already gone
[Post-Chorus]
Already gone, uh
Already gone, oh, oh
Already gone
[Bridge]
You was gone, you was gone, you was gone
I was there, you was gone, you was gone
I was up, late night on the phone, on the phone
I was praying I could be something to hold
I don’t even know what I was thinking
I was wrong, you was wrong, we was wrong
Bleeding, tryna put it in a poem, oh
[Outro]
It's so frightening
Are you still gon' like me?
All my scars bleed
I feel weak and ugly
It still feels hard to
Imagine life without you
You needed someone

It’s about that first night alone when your partner moves out and it’s obvious nothing will ever be the same. You try to change it or fix it or run from it but you have to come home eventually. The silence becomes heavy like water. Everything was a task. Everything was hard. I was holding on to hope...
