**Verse 1**
You came in like a hurricane,
Left chaos in your wake,
So sweet like sugar cane,
I never felt the ache.
Our souls were intertwined,
Like rain before a flood,
Now waking up without you
Feels like I'm just stuck in mud.
**Pre-Chorus**
Every road still leads me back,
To the echoes of your name.
I built a home inside your heart,
Now I'm standing in the rain.
**Chorus**
So tell me how I'm meant to breathe,
When every breath still tastes like you.
The fire's gone, the smoke remains,
I'm choking on the truth.
You took the light I called my own,
Now every night is cold and blue.
If love was all we ever had,
Why did it end with losing you?
**Verse 2**
Your picture on the dashboard
Still follows every mile.
I catch myself still reaching
For the ghost of your old smile.
The silence knows my secrets,
The walls all know my shame.
I'd burn the world to ashes
Just to hear you say my name.
**Bridge**
Maybe someday these broken bones
Will learn to carry me again.
But tonight this heart's still bleeding,
Still pretending we're just friends.
If heaven keeps your memory,
Then hell is letting go.
I'm somewhere in between them,
With nowhere left to go.
**Final Chorus**
So tell me how I'm meant to breathe,
When every breath still tastes like you.
The fire's gone, the smoke remains,
I'm choking on the truth.
You took the light I called my own,
Now every night is cold and blue.
If love was all we ever had,
Then I'll spend forever missing you.
**Outro**
The storm has finally faded,
But it never left my soul.
You were my only shelter...
Now I'm learning to be alone.
