Walking to the End

(Intro)

Rain falls slowly on these tired city streets

Neon reflections drowning underneath my feet

Another night with nowhere left to run

Another war inside me still not won

I close my eyes and hear your distant laugh

Like a fading song from a shattered past

And even now, after all this time

Your ghost still walks beside mine

(Verse 1)

Streetlights flicker on the empty avenue

Cold wind dancing where the summer once grew

Every step echoes like a memory fading thin

I keep moving forward though the night pulls me in

Your shadow lingers in the corners of my mind

Like a photograph the rain refused to hide

I hear your voice inside the static of the storm

A broken kind of comfort trying to keep me warm

And the sky looks heavier tonight

Like the stars themselves gave up the fight

While the moon hangs over this lonely town

Watching everything burn slowly down

(Pre-Chorus)

And all the words we never said

Still circle like ghosts above my head

I try to outrun yesterday

But it follows me anyway

(Chorus)

I’m walking to the end

Through the fire and the falling rain

Trying to find myself again

Inside the wreckage of your name

And even if the road won’t bend

I’ll carry all this pain instead

One heartbeat from the edge

Still walking to the end

I’m screaming into the wind

But the silence answers back again

With every scar beneath my skin

I keep walking to the end

(Verse 2)

Midnight trains screaming through the dark below

People come and go like waves I’ll never know

I trace our story in the cracks along the walls

Every dream we built still trembling as it falls

I thought love was something strong enough to stay

But even stars disappear before the day

Now I wear silence like a coat against my skin

Waiting for tomorrow to let the light back in

Coffee shops and empty stations blur the same

Every crowded room still whispers your name

And I keep searching faces in the crowd

For something lost that won’t be found

(Pre-Chorus)

And every mile just leads me farther

From the person I was before your departure

But somewhere buried in the pain

A spark inside me still remains

(Chorus)

I’m walking to the end

Through the fire and the falling rain

Trying to find myself again

Inside the wreckage of your name

And even if the road won’t bend

I’ll carry all this pain instead

One heartbeat from the edge

Still walking to the end

And all the nights I couldn’t sleep

Still leave their marks inside of me

But I refuse to disappear

Even drowning in my fear

(Bridge 1)

Maybe the end is not goodbye

Maybe it’s where the lost hearts learn to fly

Maybe the scars become the map

That leads me home through all the black

Maybe the tears become the sea

That washes all these chains from me

Maybe the darkness had to fall

So I could finally face it all

(Verse 3)

Winter came and froze the world in shades of gray

Still I carried all the things we couldn’t say

The photographs are fading at the seams

But somehow you still live inside my dreams

I remember dancing underneats
