The Chase (Acoustic Cover)

[Verse 1] She walks in smoke, a blade in silk disguise Eyes like tombs, lips like funeral rites I follow echoes through her shattered lullabies She’s the hunger in the dark, the queen of blight [Pre-Chorus] No mercy in her gaze No light in her name I’m not chasing her steps I’m chasing the flame [Chorus] This is the chase—blood in the gears A vow carved deep in the marrow of years Not to possess, but to be consumed By the fire she breathes, by the death she’s tuned [Verse 2] She’s the altar, I’m the knife The scream beneath the choir She’s the end of every life I’m the fool who feeds the pyre [Verse 3] She speaks in riddles made of ash Her touch—a curse, her breath—a lash I wear her name like a brand on bone A relic of love I’ll never own [Bridge] I built my throne from broken bones Crowned by her silence, cursed alone She’s the storm I begged to drown Now I wear her shadow like a crown [Breakdown] Chains of longing, forged in flame I howl her name through halls of shame She’s the wound that never bleeds The hunger that my ruin feeds [Final Chorus] This is the chase—no heaven, no grace Just the ruin she leaves, the void I embrace I’m not chasing her soul, I’m chasing my own Through the ash of her love, through the grave I’ve grown [Outro] Let the earth split, let the sky decay I’ll chase her ghost ‘til I fade away Not to win, not to claim But to burn in her name
