"January" Lyrics

It seems you've made a home
In this chamber, in my chest
There's picture frames
Now a suitcase, we've got a choice

I know you're leaving soon
January is coming faster all the time
What if you leave me here alone?

What if I break you down
Into a million little pieces in my hands
A preemptive strike
So you can't tear me down
Through telephone lines
What if I asked you to stay?
Who would I be?

I know you're leaving soon
January is coming faster all the time
What if you leave me here alone?

I think about my mother
The bottles and the battles
How she felt so alone
I know it's so selfish to say
But I don't want to be that alone
So please don't leave me here

I know you're leaving soon
January is coming faster all the time
What if you leave me here alone
I know you're going to leave me
Alone
