They told me silence would be permanent

[Intro] [electric piano, atmospheric doom guitar building] [Verse 1] They told me silence would be permanent They told me you would fade to dust But every time I call her name out loud I feel you rising up in us [Pre-Chorus] From the ashes of what I was missing To the flame that refuses to fall [Chorus] Still your fire Burning in her eyes Still your fire Never really dies I gave her your name So you would never disappear Still your fire You're still right here [Verse 2] Eight months of wearing grief like iron Your weight like thunder on my chest Then she came screaming through the darkness With your lightning in her breath [Pre-Chorus] From the hollow to the whole again From the silence to the song [Chorus] Still your fire Burning in her eyes Still your fire Never really dies I gave her your name So you would never disappear Still your fire You're still right here [Bridge] [softer, vulnerable, piano forward] I know you held her before I did Somewhere past the veil and light When her tiny fingers wrapped round mine I felt you say goodbye — and stay [Final Chorus] [triumphant, explosive] Still your fire! Burning in her eyes Still your fire! Never really dies I gave her your name [gang vocals] So you would never disappear! Still your fire You're still here You're still here! [Outro] [cathedral reverb fading] Still your fire... [whispered] Still here...
