Something is gone (Chapter 2)
[Start] [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Morning light is on the wall The room is quiet, that is all The air feels colder than before (The same still air from days before) [Verse 2] The photograph remains in view Nothing around it feels new The edges fixed, the image clear A moment that still stays here [Pre-Chorus] The day begins without a sound Nothing shifts, nothing breaks down It moves through space I do not name And stays the same... (And stays the same) [Chorus] Something is gone, but not replaced The room holds on to every trace It lingers where no words arrive In every part that feels alive I reach for what is not returned And feel the way the silence burns No voice is here, no step comes through Just everything I once knew [Verse 3] The light grows slowly on the floor It reaches parts it reached before I watch it stay, I watch it fade No difference in the shape it made [Verse 4] The air remains against the skin As if it does not let me in As if it knows without a name That nothing here has really changed [Pre-Chorus] The day begins without a sound Nothing shifts, nothing breaks down It moves through space I do not name And stays the same... (And stays the same) [Chorus] Something is gone, but not replaced The room holds on to every trace It lingers where no words arrive In every part that feels alive I reach for what is not returned And feel the way the silence burns No voice is here, no step comes through Just everything I once knew [Bridge] No question leaves this steady air No answer waits for me out there It stays inside the same fixed line Between the present and the time [Final Chorus] The light turns gold across the frame But nothing here will feel the same It drifts like dust I canβt contain Across the quiet in my brain I stand inside what used to be And softly think: "I miss you still." No start, no end, no break, no call Just something fading through it all [Instrumental Outro] [End]
