[Verse 1] I lit a match inside my chest, Just to prove there’s fire left. But every flame just turned to smoke, The kind that clung to all you spoke. You sang that darkness helps you heal, But God, Ambre… you were the real. Now silence curls beneath my skin, Your name the ache I’m drowning in. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] And I don’t know if I’m coming back — You were my color in a world gone black. ⸻ [Chorus] So I fade to black — no sound, no light, The way you slipped from me that night. Don’t call my name, don’t pull me through, My heart stays where I lost you. The world keeps turning; I can’t turn back — Just let me fade to black. ⸻ [Verse 2] I keep your messages by my bed, Twenty-seven years of you inside each word. Your tattooed skin — I trace it still On empty sheets I can’t refill. Your blue eyes held a storm you hid, A trembling faith, a quiet kid. You sang like angels burned your throat, Each note a prayer you couldn’t quote. And all the pills, they numb, they steal The parts of you I long to feel. You carved your love on fragile hands, But heaven broke our future plans. ⸻ [Verse 2B — woven in seamlessly] I play your voice notes in the dark, Each trembling word a dying spark. You always paused before you spoke, Afraid your heart would come out broke. Your laugh — half angel, half unsure — God, I’d give anything for more. Your typos read like quiet fears, Little blue-eyed prayers in lowercase tears. And every message that you sent Feels like a hymn you never meant. I scroll through you, line after line — A life cut short, still intertwined. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] And I don’t know if I’m coming back — The stars dimmed out when they turned you black. ⸻ [Chorus] So I fade to black — no sound, no light, Another piece of you slips from my sight. Don’t call my name, don’t drag me through, There’s nothing left but missing you. The world keeps turning; I can’t turn back — Just let me fade to black. ⸻ [Bridge] If love was meant to save your soul, Why did it never make you whole? You bled for hope, and hope ran dry — I held you close, still watched you die. Your mirror cracked before your eyes, You whispered fear through lullabies. I’d trade each breath I still have on To hear one more soft Ambre song. ⸻ [Final Chorus – Emotional Climax] So I fade to black — don’t bring me home, Home was her — now I just roam. Your voice, your laugh — they fade, they die, But haunt me like a lullaby. The world keeps spinning; I can’t turn back, This is peace — I fade to black. ⸻ [Outro – Whispered, like speaking to her] Fade to black… (Ambre, stay close…) No sound, no light… (your blue eyes…) I’m still here… (here in the wreckage…) Just out of sight.
