Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 Five a.m. is creeping closer After one hell of a working day The house is quiet, too damn empty Got nothing left to say I’m sitting here at the kitchen table Just me and the ticking clock Staring down an empty bottle Wondering how my heart still knocks Pre-Chorus Every shadow knows your name Every silence screams the same Chorus The fire’s burned out, turned to stone But my heart’s still all in flames I replay our best memories Like a song stuck on the same refrain Every day it gets a little heavier Still I leave the door unlocked Hoping tonight you’ll walk back in Yeah, hoping you won’t stop Verse 2 That whiskey bottle’s judging me Like it knows just what I lost Your laugh still hangs in the hallway At a price I’d pay at any cost The walls remember every moment Every promise, every fight I’d trade tomorrow for one second Of you walking in tonight Chorus The fire’s burned out, turned to stone But my heart’s still all in flames I replay our best memories Like a song stuck on the same refrain Every day it gets a little heavier Still I leave the door unlocked Hoping tonight you’ll walk back in Yeah, hoping you won’t stop Bridge I tell myself I’ll move on But hope don’t listen well Love’s a slow-burning cigarette And I’m stuck under its spell Final Chorus The fire’s burned out, turned to stone But my heart’s still all in flames If loving you’s a losing game I’ll lose it all the same Every day it gets a little heavier Still I listen for your knock Till the day you walk back in Or my heart finally stops
