Take My Breath Away

Whispered words in the dead of night, Shadows dance where there’s no light. You pull me closer, yet I slip away, A fragile thread I can’t betray. The weight of silence, the edge of pain, A fleeting moment I can’t sustain. Take my breath away, leave me in the cold, Erase the memories, the lies we told. Drown me in your storm, where I’ll decay, You hold my heart as it breaks away. Fingers trace the cracks I hide, A fleeting ghost I can’t confide. Your presence burns, yet I’m frozen still, Caught in the grip of your cruel will. The empty echoes of what remains, A fleeting rush through shattered veins. Take my breath away, leave me in the cold, Erase the memories, the lies we told. Drown me in your storm, where I’ll decay, You hold my heart as it breaks away. Take my breath away, leave me in the cold, Erase the memories, the lies we told. Drown me in your storm, where I’ll decay, You hold my heart as it breaks away. All the promises, they weigh me down, A crown of thorns, this broken crown. The air is heavy, the end feels near, But in your grasp, there’s no room for fear. Take my breath away, and let me fade, A fleeting shadow in the choices we made. Drown me in your storm, where I’ll decay, You hold my soul as it slips away.
