When Your Voice Is Gone

[Intro] [Verse 1] A distant train of fading signals Crosses through the night again Beyond a million darkened windows I remember where you’ve been Every name remains unbroken Every story leaves its light Though the world that made those memories Has vanished from my sight [Pre-Chorus] You built tomorrow with your questions Then disappeared into the years [Chorus] When your voice is gone When your voice is gone I still hear you in the silence of the stars When your voice is gone When your voice is gone I still carry who you are When every city turns to shadow When every road is lost to time I still carry your names I still carry your light [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Old letters sleep in ruined stations Dust moves slowly through the halls Forgotten songs return like echoes From abandoned station walls Every name still lights the darkness Every dream still finds its way I can hear your dreams still moving Through the currents of the night Like distant lights beyond the darkness Burning far beyond my sight [Pre-Chorus] You reached beyond the horizon I followed every trace Still I walk the road you left me Calling softly through the rain [Chorus] When your voice is gone When your voice is gone I still hear you in the silence of the stars When your voice is gone When your voice is gone I still carry who you are When every city turns to shadow When every road is lost to time I still carry your names I still carry your light [Bridge] If memory becomes a soul Then part of you remains In every name I carry forward In every light that still survives Your voice still lingers in the rain Like distant echoes calling home I hear your world in echoes I see your traces in the rain But all the roads that lead to you Will never lead me home [Final Chorus] When your voice is gone When your voice is gone Across a billion silent years When your voice is gone When your voice is gone Still I wish that you were here Though I know you won’t return Though I know the end is real I still carry your names I still carry your light When your voice is gone Still the light remains [Outro]
