[Verse]
Bullets hum lullabies, a choir of pain,
Concrete cracks where the blood leaves a stain,
Caskets line streets, a parade with no cheers,
Angels went AWOL, traded halos for spears.
[Prechorus]
Smoke in the lungs, hearts turn to ash,
Clocks ticking slow but the moments dash.
[Chorus]
Shadows and flames, all I see,
Dancing with death in a burnt-out city.
Love's a ghost, grief's my chain,
Living in the echoes of shadows and flames.
[Verse 2]
The reaper wears Jordans, steps heavy on dreams,
Love letters torn, now they're casualty scenes.
Hope's on crutches, limping through time,
War's a bad DJ, skipping the rhyme.
[Bridge]
Ashes to ashes, the cycle repeats,
We mourn to a rhythm, grief got its beats.
Stars fall like bodies, no wishes tonight,
Love fades to black under flickering light.
[Chorus]
Shadows and flames, all I see,
Dancing with death in a burnt-out city.
Love's a ghost, grief's my chain,
Living in the echoes of shadows and flames.
