[Verse 1]
We found each other in a quiet storm
Hearts unguarded, wide and warm
Laid our bricks with tender grace
Built a world in a sacred space
Laughed through nights, dreamed through days
Spoke of forever in simple ways
[Verse 2]
Time moved on, we carved our path
Through storms and sunshine, love held fast
Or so I believed, or so I prayed
But some foundations softly fade
I missed the cracks, the quiet signs
The silence filling in the lines
[Chorus]
Then the fire came, without a sound
Tore our castle to the ground
Ashes swirled where dreams once stood
Smoke rose thick, misunderstood
We cried for reasons, searched the sand
But when I looked… the match was in your hand
[Verse 3]
You wore a calm I didn't see through
Smiles that hid what you already knew
A heart unraveling, piece by piece
While I held on, begging peace
Were you tired, or did it thrill?
To watch our world grow dark and still?
[Chorus]
Then the fire came, without a sound
Tore our castle to the ground
Ashes swirled where dreams once stood
Smoke rose thick, misunderstood
We cried for reasons, searched the sand
But when I looked… the match was in your hand
[Bridge]
Was it all pretend, or did you mean it once?
Did you light it slow, or did it catch at once?
I begged for answers in the flame
But silence burned and spoke your name
It wasn’t fate or some cruel twist
It was your spark — your clenched fist
[New Verse 4]
Now all that’s left is blackened stone
A house once full, now overgrown
I trace the ruins, feel the cold
Of dreams that died, of hands not held
And in the quiet, I understand
You lit the fire with your own hand
[Final Chorus]
The fire came, and so did truth
It scorched the walls and burned our youth
The love we swore, the plans we made
All fell beneath the smoke and blade
We cried for reasons, searched the sand
But in the end… the match was in your hand
[Outro]
And though it breaks me where I stand
I’ll walk away…
While you're holding the match in your hand
