Fire from The Sky

[Intro] The day started like it always does, Same light through the blinds, same weight in my chest. Nothing felt wrong enough to stop time, Nothing loud enough to warn what came next. [Verse 1] Coffee cooling on the counter, Shoes by the door where they always stay. The world still runs on borrowed habits, Even when it’s about to take something away. I was thinking about nothing in particular, Just another hour I’d live through clean. Funny how the moment before impact Always feels the most routine. [Chorus] Fire from the sky, Fire from the sky- Never a warning, no reason why. Ash doesn’t ask and the coals can’t care, The tempest above decides how we fare. I’m left in the smoke, Walking a scorched line, Burning alive while saying, “everything’s fine.” Fire from the sky, Fire from the sky- The embers may fade, But these flames never die. [Verse 2] I’ve seen this shape before in the distance, Different days, but the same damn sound. Another crater in familiar ground, Another silence that sticks around. Time stacks losses without counting, Blurs the years into one long night. You start measuring life in absences, In who didn’t make it through this time. [Spoken] You don’t get time to prepare. You don’t get a warning. You just wake up one day carrying something you didn’t choose. [Verse 3] I stopped asking what I could have changed, Stopped counting the seconds before the fall. Some things arrive already finished, No choices left to make at all. The questions rot if you keep them, They don’t heal, they just stay. So I set them down in the quiet And let the answers walk away. [Pre-Chorus] They say it gets easier with repetition, Like the heart learns how to harden its skin. But every strike still lands where it landed, It just teaches you how not to flinch. [Chorus] Fire from the sky, Fire from the sky- Never a warning, no reason why. Ash doesn’t ask and the coals can’t care, The tempest above decides how we fare. I’m left in the smoke, Walking a scorched line, Burning alive while saying, “everything’s fine.” Fire from the sky, Fire from the sky- The embers may fade, But these flames never die. [Verse 4] There are nights I still reach for voices That time erased without a sound. Habit makes a liar of memory, I forget they’re not around. I don’t chase closure anymore, It never comes when you call. I just carry what’s still burning And let the rest turn to ash and soil. [Breakdown] No villains. No meaning. No lesson dressed as grace. Just gravity doing what it does best, Putting names into empty space. I don’t scream at the sky anymore, It never answers, it never did. I just stand where the fire fell, Learning how to live in what it left. [Final Chorus] Fire from the sky, Fire from the sky- It doesn’t miss and it doesn’t try. Ash in my lungs, but I still breathe air, Still showing up like I belong here. I carry the burn, I carry the scar, I carry the proof of who you were. Fire from the sky, Fire from the sky- You were here once. Now the silence is mine. [Outro] The world keeps moving. I keep moving too. Not because I’m healed- Because that’s what’s left to do.
