Craving the Spark

[Verse]
Shadows linger
Whispers grow
Stillness claws
No seeds to sow
The clock bleeds silence
Deafening
Cold
The weight of nothing
Stories untold
[Prechorus]
Eyes stare
Hollow glass
Time slows
Won't let it pass
[Chorus]
Where is the fire? Where is the flame?
A spark to drive
To burn the shame
Give me reason
Tear me apart
Fuel my soul
Ignite my heart
[Verse 2]
Steel hands grip
But no ground to break
A hollow hammer
Each swing a fake
Chains of stasis
Wrapped too tight
Yearning screams in the endless night
[Prechorus]
Dreams fade
Ashes gray
No light to mark the way
[Chorus]
Where is the fire? Where is the flame?
A spark to drive
To burn the shame
Give me reason
Tear me apart
Fuel my soul
Ignite my heart
