[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Crimson bleeds across the sky, another day dissolves to dust Silhouette against the light, a memory I clutch Schoolyard echoes in my ears, whispers of who we used to be Tomorrow stretches out, unclear, a future I can barely see [Pre-Chorus] But the warmth upon my face, a gentle, fading ember's glow Reminds me of this sacred space, where time moves ever so slow [Chorus] Ephemeral ember, burning low A flicker in the afterglow Holding on, though shadows grow A promise whispered, soft and slow Tomorrow's waiting, I know, I know But in this moment, I let go [Verse 2] Cherry blossoms fall like rain, petals scattered on the breeze Each one a fleeting, sweet refrain, carried through the whispering trees The world keeps spinning, onward bound, a relentless, hurried pace But in this stillness, peace I've found, a moment etched upon my face [Pre-Chorus] And the warmth upon my face, a gentle, fading ember's glow Reminds me of this sacred space, where time moves ever so slow [Chorus] Ephemeral ember, burning low A flicker in the afterglow Holding on, though shadows grow A promise whispered, soft and slow Tomorrow's waiting, I know, I know But in this moment, I let go [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] Ephemeral ember, burning low A flicker in the afterglow Holding on, though shadows grow A promise whispered, soft and slow Tomorrow's waiting, I know, I know But in this moment, I let go [Instrumental Outro]
