The weight of silence lingers in this room
Chasing fragments of you through the gloom
Your figure's kiss burns deeper than the flame
Calling out, I'm still tethered to your name
I trace the cracks you left behind
Each one a story, a moment in time
Your voice, a memory etched in stone
Haunting every space I've called my own
Was it fate or just my own?
Despair, to find completeness
In the emptiness you share
I'm a ghost of who I used to be
Drifting between love and clarity
You break me, mend me, tear me apart
But still I'm craving the chaos of
Your heart
With you I'm whole
Without, I'm torn
You're the calm in every storm
You make me better
That much is true
I'm incomplete without the worst of you
Your absence cuts
Like a lover's blade
Each scar and vow
We never made
But void you leave
It's deafening
Yet somehow it's where I hear everything
Was it madness?
Or a master's design?
To find salvation
In the ruin you confined
Every step away
Pulls me closer still
A tethered heart that bends to your every will
The line between us
Is a fragile thread
Binding the living to what's long been dead
With you I'm whole
Without, I'm torn
You're the calm in every storm
You make me better
That much is true
I'm incomplete without the worst of you
So take what's left
Rewrite the truth
I've given all, to keep holding on to you
Incomplete
I'll wander this life sweet flame
Always returning to you
Through the pain
