When the Silence Falls (Extended)

If you left tonight, What could I do but fight With the weight of fading light, Lost fragments of a dream? I’m the shadow you can’t erase, The memory you won’t embrace. Every scar I left in place Still whispers through the years. But everything bends, Time’s not a healer, just pretends. If you could hold me again, Maybe I’d learn to mend. Sometimes we break just to feel alive, Lost in the waves, trying to survive. When the silence falls, It’s the loudest sound of all. Every word we didn’t call Hangs heavy in the air. What if we’re just pages In a story without end? Would the lines we wrote Still matter if we pretend? But everything bends, Time’s not a healer, just pretends. If you could hold me again, Maybe I’d learn to mend. Sometimes we break just to feel alive, Lost in the waves, trying to survive. If you left tonight, What could I do but fight? The shadows never die; They just wait for the light.
