Alive Again in Your Absence
[Intro – Clean, distant, reverb-heavy] So far away The end of an era With broken hearts We lay them to rest [Verse 1 – Low growls / mid screams] [Scream] Sinking ships of empathy and cutting ties I don't wanna hear your voice or see your eyes Severed ties, I cut the cord I lay you down, your heartbeat falls An empty chest now You're a ghost of a girl And you don't exist anymore [Pre‑Chorus – Clean + layered screams underneath] [Clean] Time moves forward as we forget The pain we felt, the world we built Fades to nothing In the shadows of a new horizon In this life I lose the one that I adore [Chorus – Clean lead, screams doubling key phrases] [Clean] You have made me weak Now I'm getting stronger You have caused me pain But it won't last much longer You have made me weep Now I know it's over You have left a stain But I'm no longer yours [Verse 2 – Mid screams, rising intensity] [Scream] I watched you fall into the ocean In my dream, I felt nothing When I woke, I cried out of joy No more pain, no more hatred No more heartache, no more anger You are free, and so am I So am I [Bridge – Clean + whispered screams] [Clean] All alone, now it's cold and dark The wound is deep and the scar is hard Your memory will remain But now I'm free from the pain As you rest inside your grave I'm alive again [Breakdown – Scream-only, guttural, slow tempo] [BREAKDOWN – GUTTURAL SCREAM] I was buried underneath the wreckage I watched the world decay It all collapsed in seconds And my heart began to break [BREAKDOWN – DROP] Until I ripped myself from you And finally escaped NOW YOU'RE DEAD TO ME [Chorus – Scream/clean hybrid] [Clean + Scream] You have made me weak Now I'm getting stronger You have caused me pain But it won't last much longer [Post‑Chorus – Spoken/scream contrast] [Scream] You don't get to see the scars You're not there to pick me up You don't get to hold my hand When I'm feeling like I'm not enough You don't get to feel my heart You don't get to be my friend You don't get to know my mind And you won't get to see me again [Refrain – Clean, mournful] Close your eyes and rest Dream of a world without regret As you rest inside your grave I'm alive again [Verse 3 – Clean → scream escalation] [Clean] So much to say But there's nothing left I will move on In your absence [Atmospheric Reprise – Clean] I watched you fall into the ocean In my dream, I felt nothing When I woke, I cried out of joy No more pain, no more hatred No more heartache, no more anger [Final Chorus – Clean lead, screams underneath] You have made me weak Now I'm getting stronger You have caused me pain But it won't last much longer [Finale – Clean → scream] [Clean] You are free, and so am I As you rest inside your grave I'm alive again [Clean fading] In the shadows of a new horizon [Scream – FINAL HIT] YOU ARE FREE AND SO AM I [Outro – Spoken / low whisper] And you don't have to say you're sorry for the thousandth time Because I know your true colors now
