Lyrics

Intro: Whispered
I still hear you in the silence...
Like a voice trapped inside a dying room.
Like a memory that refuses to become a grave.
I don't know when we became strangers,
When the space between us became louder than our love...
But I still feel you.
I still feel you.
Verse 1
I built a cathedral out of every word you said,
Carved your name into the walls inside my head.
I kept the pieces of every moment we made,
While the distance came like a shadow I couldn't escape.
I reach for you through oceans and empty nights,
Through the ghosts of conversations and fading lights.
I miss the sound of your voice pulling me back,
The way your laughter could bring me out of the black.
But now I'm fighting a war you can't see,
Trying to hold onto what you mean to me.
And every unanswered moment feels like a blade,
Slowly cutting through the love that we made.
Pre-Chorus
Do you feel me fading?
Do you feel the weight?
Do you hear my heart calling
Through the walls we created?
Chorus: Heavy
Because I am breaking where you can't see,
Drowning in the distance between you and me.
I would cross every darkness, every endless night,
Just to find my way back to your light.
You were the storm that finally felt like home,
The only place my shattered soul wasn't alone.
But this silence is haunting me, tearing me apart,
Like a ghost with your name living inside my heart.
And I still love you...
Even when it hurts to breathe.
I still choose you...
Even when you're miles away from me.
Verse 2
I remember the nights when the world disappeared,
When your voice was the only thing I needed to hear.
When you shared your music before anyone else,
Like you were giving me pieces of yourself.
I miss the calls that lasted until the sunrise,
The moments where we forgot the existence of time.
I miss us before the silence took control,
Before the distance started stealing pieces of my soul.
I don't need perfection.
I don't need a promise written in stone.
I just want the person who made me feel
Like I finally found my way home.
Bridge: Screamed
I'm tired of fighting a war against the miles!
I'm tired of pretending that I'm fine!
Because every day without you feels like I'm losing
Another piece of the life we were choosing!
If there's still a fire beneath the ashes,
If there's still a heartbeat under the damage...
Come back to me.
Find me again.
Because I am still here.
Final Chorus
I am breaking where you can't see,
But your name still lives inside of me.
Through every shadow, every scar, every endless night,
I still search for you in the dark.
You are the echo I cannot erase,
The unfinished song I cannot replace.
And even if the universe pulls us apart,
You will always have a home inside my heart.
So if you ever wonder if I stopped loving you...
Know this:
I was never afraid of the darkness.
I was only afraid of losing you in it.
Outro: Whispered
Maybe distance can separate two bodies...
But it never learned how to separate two souls.
I'm still here.
