Unpacked Boxes

New keys, new street

Same old heartbeat

Tape on cardboard and a marker's name

Every box I open, it's the same

Two cups, two plates, a plant you bought

All the little things I never thought

Landlord asking if I'm settling in

I just smile and say it's where I've been

Rain on a window that I don't know yet

Teaching my heart how to forget

Out of sight, out of mind

That's a lie I can't unwind

Unpacked boxes, sitting by the door

Your old hoodie lying on the floor

I can move the bed, I can paint the wall

But I can't unpack you at all

Found your letter folded in a book

Promised I would never take a look

Read it twice and then a hundred more

Ink still warm like it was before

Maybe someday I'll unpack the last

Maybe someday you'll be just the past

Unpacked boxes, sitting by the door

Your old hoodie lying on the floor

I can move the bed, I can paint the wall

But I can't unpack you at all

Unpacked boxes

Still unpacked
