Verse 1 (Fast, UK cadence)

I never knew silence could sound so loud,

Your voice is a ghost in a busy crowd.

Every word you left sits sharp on my skin,

Cuts through the noise, digs deep within.

I tried to reply but my tongue tied tight,

Like the truth’s too heavy to speak at night.

Love’s not clean, it’s a scar that stays,

But I’d wear it proud for the rest of my days.

⸻

Verse 2 (Shifted tone, reflective)

You said “forever” in a careless way,

And I still replay it every single day.

Not forever like oceans or the endless sky,

But forever like whispers before goodbye.

I carried your name like a flame in my hand,

Burned my palm but I still can’t stand,

To let it go, so I let it sear,

Every mark is a memory of you right here.

⸻

Verse 3 (Faster, heavier)

Love’s not sweet, it’s a fist in the chest,

It’s nights with no sleep, it’s a cruel test.

It’s a battlefield hidden in a lover’s eyes,

It’s the truth in the hurt when the promise dies.

I gave you my all, every part, every piece,

But the more I poured out, the less your release.

Now I’m left with words I can’t erase,

And a broken heart in an empty space.

⸻

Verse 4 (Closing reflection, still fast but softer)

Still, if love is pain, then I’ll take it all,

I’ll stumble, I’ll crawl, I’ll bleed, I’ll fall.

‘Cause the echo of you is better than none,

A shadow of love still weighs like the sun.

So I’ll hold the hurt, I’ll clutch the flame,

Even if it means I’ll never be the same.

Fast words, deep breath, truth on my chest,

Love’s not kind, but it’s all I’ve got left.
