Falling Star

He was the spark of every room

Bright as the sun but gone too soon

Big laugh big dreams big heart too

Now it's ashes where he flew

Eyes once warm now frozen glass

A mirror breaks it won’t come back

Falling star falling star

You burned too fast now here we are

Falling star falling star

So close so bright but now so far

She said love’s a gentle knife

Carved him open took his light

Left him bleeding left him still

Now his fire’s an empty chill

Hands once soft now fists of stone

A voice that cracks when he’s alone

Falling star falling star

You burned too fast now here we are

Falling star falling star

So close so bright but now so far

Silence falls, shadows crawl, paint the night with silent scars

Lights went down, echoes fade, the stage is cold, not a word exchanged

Flickering flame, burnt to ash, a star that burned too fast, too brash

Eyes told stories, dark and raw, hidden pain behind the flaw

Heaving breath, broken dreams, life’s not always what it seems

Burned out, star in the black, fallen from the sky, never coming back

Silent cries, screaming loud, lost in the memories he shrouds

Burned out, faded glow, still he rises from the low

Whispered pain in the violin’s cry, in the darkness, he will survive

Fifteen seconds of silence, then the band ignites, defies the violence

Strings weep like tears, a mournful plea, an emo heart’s silent decree

Stars may burn and fade away, but his story’s here to stay

In the echo of the room, a silent hero, in the gloom
