[Verse]
Ashes of a world I cradled once
Held it tight till my hands burned
A love so vast it swallowed me whole
Now just whispers and dust
Cold nights
Colder soul
[Chorus]
I loved the world
I loved her more
A thief of fire
Left me raw
Left me sore
I gave my breath
She took my air
This life I take
Does she care
[Verse 2]
Another woman
Storm in her veins
Eyes like a tempest
Voice like chains
She tore my chest
Left it hollow
Shattered dreams
Hard to swallow
Love’s a blade
Always cuts
[Prechorus]
Do you hear it
The silence scream
Do you see it
The fractured dream
[Chorus]
I loved the world
I loved her more
A thief of fire
Left me raw
Left me sore
I gave my breath
She took my air
This life I take
Does she care
[Bridge]
Broken glass beneath my feet
The orchestra plays a dirge so sweet
Strings weep
Violins cry
Distorted chords
Let me die
