Verse 1
Every night when the sun falls low,
I walk the path that I know by heart.
Rows of names carved into stone,
Trying to mend what’s been torn apart.
I set my spirit box beside the graves,
Static fills the cold midnight air.
I call each name with a shaking voice…
But silence is the only thing that’s there.
Pre-Chorus
They say love never really leaves,
So why can’t I hear a single word?
Not a whisper through the radio,
Not a sound to calm this hurt.
Chorus
On the way back to my car, my eyes are drowning in the rain,
Every step feels twice as heavy, every breath just speaks your name.
Why doesn’t anybody care? Why won’t somebody break through?
Tell me that you love me still… tell me that you miss me too.
Just one “hello” would heal this soul that’s breaking more each day.
I’ll keep searching through the static, though you never seem to stay.
I’m still holding onto hope, no matter what they say…
I’ll spirit box you till I die.
Verse 2
The moon has learned my lonely face,
The wind knows every prayer I’ve cried.
I’ve memorized each weathered stone,
Each place where pieces of me died.
The frequencies keep rolling on,
White noise where your voices should be.
If you’re really somewhere out there…
Why won’t you speak to me?
Bridge
Maybe heaven’s far too peaceful,
Maybe grief has made me blind.
Maybe love doesn’t need a voice…
But I’m still listening every night.
Even if the answers never come,
Even if the silence wins,
I’ll keep knocking on forever’s door…
Until my own journey begins.
Final Chorus
Walking back with tears that blur the stars,
Wondering if you remember who we are.
Why won’t you tell me that you love me?
Why won’t you tell me that you care?
Why won’t you whisper “I’m still with you,”
When I’m calling through the air?
They can call it foolish dreaming,
They can say I’ve lost my mind.
But hope’s the only thing I’ve got…
And hope is hard to leave behind.
So every night I’ll come back here,
With my heart beneath the sky.
Waiting through the endless static…
I’ll spirit box you till I die.
Outro
If silence is your only answer,
I’ll still ask the question why.
Because love outlives the heartbeat…
And I’ll spirit box you till I die.
