Awake in silence Where your shadow used to breathe The bed remembers But your warmth has left with me
I gave you everything You left me nothing but the ache Now I drown inside the stillness Haunted by the space you make
Hollow veins Carry the ghost of your name I am quiet, I am ruin You became In the silence I hear the echo of decay Hollow veins And you'll never fade away
You spoke of love But kissed me with distance Every touch a fracture Every word resistance If absence is a weapon Then I am pierced through If silence is a kingdom I am buried in its tomb
Tear my soul! Rip the skin! Carve your ghost! From within! This emptiness It calls my name I'm not your slave I'm not your grave
Hollow veins Carry the ghost of your name I am the quiet I am the ruin You became In the silence I hear the echo of decay Hollow veins But I will wash your ghost away
The silence stays But you are gone The night remains I carry on
