Burn in the Silence

Verse 1]

Midnight echoes down an empty street

Your shadow’s dancing where we used to meet

Every heartbeat’s screaming out your name

But loving you’s a losing game

I taste the danger on my lips tonight

Your memory cuts me like a knife

We crossed a line we can’t undo

Now every road leads back to you

We were fire in the dark

Now I’m drowning in the spark

This forbidden love is killing me slow

I can’t let go, I can’t let go

You’re the poison running under my skin

And I’d do it all again

Hear me calling through the night

But you’re always out of sight

In the shadows where we used to begin

I’m still reaching out for him

Your name’s a whisper I can’t escape

A ghost that time will never erase

We built a world we had to hide

Now I’m lost without your light

Every lie we told to stay alive

Is breaking me down inside

I see your face in every flame

And I’m the one who takes the blame

We were never meant to last

Still I’m chained into the past

This forbidden love is burning my soul

Out of control, out of control

You’re the thunder crashing under my skin

And I’d do it all again

Hear me screaming through the night

But you’re fading out of sight

In the silence where we used to begin

I’m still aching just for him

[Bridge] (Heavy guitar, raw vocals)

No redemption, no release

Just a war inside of me

If loving you is my sin

I’ll wear the scars beneath my skin

Tear me open, let me bleed

You’re the only thing I need

Even if it breaks me down

I’ll wear this cursed, forbidden crown

(Whispered)

I still want you…

Even if I shouldn’t…

This forbidden love won’t set me free

It’s all I need, it’s all I need

You’re the fire I can never outrun

My darkness and my sun

Hear me calling through the pain

Through the thunder and the rain

In the ruins of what might have been

I’m still in love with him

(Soft, fading)

Yeah… I’m still in love with him…
