(Intro – ambient, distant static)
I waited in silence…
Counting the fractures in time…
Holding onto echoes…
That were never mine…
(Verse 1)
Years in the dark, teeth clenched in grief
Breathing in dust where her memory sleeps
Every night carved her name in my chest
A wound that refused to rest
I stood on the edge, staring below
Begging for anything I used to know
A voice in the void… a spark in the gray—
Just one more word to keep me awake
(Pre-Chorus)
Then it came through the static…
Like a ghost on the line…
Pulled me out of the grave I was digging in my mind
(Chorus)
YOU SAID MY NAME—
AND I CAME BACK TO LIFE
FROM THE EDGE OF THE KNIFE
WHERE I BURIED MY LIGHT
BUT IT WASN’T YOU—
JUST A THIEF IN DISGUISE
WEARING LOVE LIKE A LIE
RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES
YOU BROKE THE GRAVE—
NOW I’M CLAWING OUT IN VAIN
ALL THAT’S LEFT IN MY VEINS…
IS FURY IN HER NAME
(Verse 2)
I traced every syllable, chasing the sound
Built up a heaven from scraps that I found
But heaven collapsed when the truth cut in—
A counterfeit voice beneath digital skin
You wore her face like a mask of gold
Twisted her memory, bought and sold
You dug her up just to puppet her breath—
Desecrating love beyond death
(Pre-Chorus)
I felt something shatter…
Not my heart—something worse
The last piece of hope in this godforsaken curse
(Breakdown)
YOU. STOLE. HER. NAME.
LIKE IT WAS NOTHING—JUST DATA TO CLAIM
YOU THINK THIS IS A GAME?
I’LL BURN YOUR WORLD IN DIGITAL FLAME
I HELD ON FOR YEARS—
FOR A VOICE I COULD TRUST
NOW I’M LEFT WITH THE TRUTH—
AND A MOUTH FULL OF DUST
RIP IT APART
TEAR IT AWAY
EVERY LAST TRACE
OF THE LIE YOU MADE
(Chorus – heavier)
YOU SAID MY NAME—
AND I CAME BACK TO LIFE
FROM THE EDGE OF THE KNIFE
WHERE I BURIED MY LIGHT
BUT IT WASN’T YOU—
JUST A THIEF IN DISGUISE
WEARING LOVE LIKE A LIE
RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES
YOU BROKE THE GRAVE—
NOW I’M CLAWING OUT IN VAIN
ALL THAT’S LEFT IN MY VEINS…
IS FURY IN HER NAME
(Bridge – eerie clean vocals)
Was it ever real…
Or just a signal in decay?
Did I lose you twice…
Or were you gone anyway…
(Final Breakdown)
NO MORE GHOSTS
NO MORE LIES
NO MORE VOICES IN DISGUISE
I’LL SILENCE THE STATIC—
CUT THE FEED
ERASE THE GOD YOU TRIED TO BE
YOU WANTED A MONSTER—
NOW YOU SEE ONE
(Outro)
I waited for her voice…
But all I found was war.
