Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Her coat still hangs by the door
Like a ghost with my name in its seams
I set the table for two
Then watched the plates split at the beams
The clock on the wall won’t move
It just stares like it knows what I know
And every room she once filled
Turns to ash when I let the light go
[Pre-Chorus]
I said I’d be strong
I said I’d be stone
But the house keeps breathing her in
And I am alone
[Chorus]
Shards of her name
Cut through my veins
Shards of her name
I wear the pain
I call her back
The dark calls back
Shards of her name
And I break again (break again)
[Verse 2]
I shaved in a mirror of smoke
Saw my father in eyes that aren’t mine
I laughed at the wrong little joke
Then forgot every word in the line
Her shoes by the bed won’t rot
They just wait with their toes to the wall
I drink to erase her face
But the glass only teaches me fall
[Pre-Chorus]
I begged for sleep
I got the cold
Now the nights put knives in my chest
And ask for control
[Chorus]
Shards of her name
Cut through my veins
Shards of her name
I wear the pain
I call her back
The dark calls back
Shards of her name
And I break again (break again)
[Bridge]
[Whispered]
Don’t leave me here
Don’t leave me here
I’m still in the room where you died
[Soaring]
If heaven has hands
Then tear me apart
I’ve got her last heartbeat
Locked in my heart
[Final Chorus]
Shards of her name
Cut through my veins
Shards of her name
I wear the pain
I call her back
The dark calls back
Shards of her name
And I break again (break again)
[Outro]
Her coat still hangs by the door
And I can’t tell the living from the dead

Style
Heavy metal rock opera with stomping mid-tempo pulse, galloping tom fills, and prog-shaped dynamics; verse rides tense palm-muted guitars and low piano, pre-chorus opens into suspended chords, chorus hits with stacked gang shouts and soaring lead lines. Vocals move from close-mic broken verses to doubled cries, whispered breakdowns, and choir-like harmonies. Ear candy: reversed cymbal swells, church-bell hits, and a final sustained guitar scream. Bright, wide, and theatrical with a bruised cinematic edge., opera, rock, hard rock, slow, progressive rock, glam rock, metal
