[Verse]
Smoke lingers where my heart used to pound,
Tears drip-drop, quiet in the background.
Ran to freedom, thought it’d clear my sky,
But chains of regret got me thinking why.
[Chorus]
Back to you, I fall through the cracks,
Neon nights fade, my soul turns black.
Nothing out here fills the empty space,
I’m chasing shadows, but it’s your face.
[Bridge]
Accordion cries, matching this ache inside,
Every note cuts deeper, I can't hide.
Desert wind carrying whispers of my sins,
Losing you wasn’t a loss, it’s where it begins.
[Verse 2]
Hopscotch between dreams and expectations,
But the paradise I built fell in rotations.
Gold glinted, but it burned my touch,
The cost of the world was losing too much.
[Chorus]
Back to you, I crawl in my mind,
Looking for what I left behind.
Echoes scream louder with every beat,
Miss your warmth, now I shiver in defeat.
[Verse 3]
Winter bites where the sun should shine,
Thought I’d dance, now I taste bitter wine.
They call it freedom, I call it a cage,
Can’t turn back time, can’t fix the page.
