Echoes and Ashes

[Intro] [Verse 1] I was the wild one, they said I’d fade, But here in the silence, your ghost still invades. Chasing the thrill, I drowned in the drink, Nobody saw me start to sink. Every confession, loud in my veins, You're the affliction that no one can name. [Chorus] Oh, you’re a fire that's burning my life, A sweet disaster, a beautiful strife. I feel you like thunder, can't hold you like rain, For weeks, we were wild, now just the pain. [Verse 2] Now we're just neighbors with perfect smiles, Your shadow in my garden, crossing the miles. Your partner's planting roses in lines so neat, While in my chest, a tempest beats. All I have is endless grey, Trapped in a loop, where Mondays stay. [Bridge] Took a chance on a cure, they said it would stick, But your memory’s a melody, cruel and slick. I scream to the heavens, why can’t you see? Your absence is a chain, not a key. [Chorus] Oh, you’re a fire that's burning my life, A sweet disaster, a beautiful strife. I feel you like thunder, can't hold you like rain, For weeks, we were wild, now just the pain. [Verse 3] You're at your window, I'm at my wall, Dreams of what’s forbidden, feeling the call. You say it’s normal, just a phase, But every glance sets my heart ablaze. [Outro] Calling your name, but you’re just a ghost, In a land of the free, I’m lost at the most. Chasing a sunrise in Florida’s grace, But it won’t ignite until we face, face, face. [Chorus] Oh, you’re a fire that's burning my life, A sweet disaster, a beautiful strife. I feel you like thunder, can't hold you like rain, For weeks, we were wild, now just the pain.
