I walk the long way home again
Streetlights humming like old friends
Your voice echoes in the corners of my chest
Faint as the moon fading in the west
And I keep trying to outrun
The quiet truth of what we've done
There's a shadow on my hands
Where you used to fit
Where you used to stand
I keep reaching through the dark
Searching for the shape of what we
lost But it slips like water through me
Leaving only memory I keep your letter in the drawer
Folded edges worn and torn
Some nights it feels like you're still near
Some nights I drown in what I fear
And I keep asking the silence
Why love must come with violence There's a shadow on my hands
Where you used to fit
Where you used to stand
And I keep reaching through the dark
Searching for the shape of what we lost
But it slips like water through me
Leaving only memory
Maybe we were meant to break To earn the cost of giving everything
Maybe all we have is time And the hope that healing
waits behind
Still,
there's a shadow on my hands Where you
used to fit Where you used to stand
Even if the night moves on I still feel you in the quiet dawn
Like a breath that never leaves me You're the echo in my grief still
