(Verse 5)
The sky turns red for days on end
Like it knows this is the end
The air is thin, the ground is weak
Every step begins to creak
You cough, I hear it in your chest
A hollow sound I try to guess
But you just smile and say you’re fine
While fading slowly out of time
(Pre-Chorus)
We came so far on borrowed breath
Now every road still leads to death
(Chorus)
In the fire, in the fall
We were never meant to last at all
But your hand still holds on tight
Like it’s stronger than the night
If the end is drawing near
I won’t run, I’ll stay right here
Let the world just turn to dust
All that matters now is us
(Verse 6)
We find a place above the grey
Where light still fights to break the day
A hill untouched by all the scars
Where we can almost see the stars
You sit down slow, you look at me
Like you already want to leave
I shake my head, I won’t accept
The quiet truth you haven’t said
(Pre-Chorus)
No words can fix what time has done
No way to stop what’s just begun
(Bridge)
“If I go first, don’t lose your way
Don’t let this world take you the same”
I try to speak but nothing comes
Just broken breath and trembling lungs
(Breakdown)
The wind is still… too still tonight
Like even it won’t watch this fight
(Final Chorus)
In the ashes, in the end
You were more than just a friend
You were proof that hope survives
Even in the darkest lives
Now the silence feels too loud
In a world beneath a shroud
But I’ll carry what we were
Through the dust… through every blur
(Outro)
The sky goes black, the stars appear
For the first time in these years
I sit alone—but not the same
Still whispering your hidden name
And in the dark, I swear I see
A flicker… of what used to be
