(Verse 1)
You’re a comet burning past my midnight sky,
I’m counting constellations that spell your goodbye.
Your laugh is a rumor, my chest is the crime scene,
I’m rehearsing the echoes of what might have been.
(Pre-Chorus)
You moved on like seasons, I’m stuck in December,
Frozen in the part of me that won’t remember.
(Chorus)
How do you vanish while I’m still tracing your name?
You turned the page; I’m still caught in the flame.
If you come back, I’ll take the blame,
I’ll wait in the silence where nothing’s the same.
(Verse 2)
You stitched new memories with someone else’s thread,
While I’m unraveling all the words we never said.
You sip sunlight; I swallow the storm,
You’re a perfect horizon; I’m the shape of the worn.
(Pre-Chorus)
You’re a melody fading, I’m the broken refrain,
But I’ll hum your song even through the pain.
(Chorus)
How do you vanish while I’m still tracing your name?
You turned the page; I’m still caught in the flame.
If you come back, I’ll take the blame,
I’ll wait in the silence where nothing’s the same.
(Bridge)
I’d steal the night just to hold you once more,
Walk through fire on a floor of shattered doors.
I’m a liar, a lover, a shadow, a fool—
But I’ll wait for you even if it breaks every rule.
(Chorus – Final)
How do you vanish while I’m still tracing your name?
You’re a new world; I’m a house in the rain.
If forever exists, I’ll wait for its cue,
I’ll wait like a ghost still haunting you.
(Outro)
I’m still here…
A shadow tethered to you.
