What do you do… after they’re gone?

[Spoken Intro] What do you do… after they’re gone? When the house still holds their scent, and the silence sounds like their laugh? You try to keep moving… Because grief don’t end the flight — it just changes where you land. (soft piano fades in) [Verse 1] I still hear your voice when the morning starts, The echo lives deep in my heart. Your coffee cup still sits on the ledge, Your hoodie hangs by the window’s edge. Time don’t heal, it teaches grace, Shows me love in a different space. Every tear I drop, I swear it shines, Like stars that fall, but never die. [Hook 1 – Sung / Female Harmony] What do you do after they’re gone, When the world moves on but your heart holds on? Every song I write, you’re the hidden line, Every dream I chase, still intertwined. Yeah, I talk to the sky like it’s still your phone, What do you do after they’re gone? [Verse 2] Some nights I still drive with no place to go, Your playlist playing on the radio. Streetlights blur like tears in my eyes, But I smile — 'cause love never dies. People say, “time will set you free,” But I just learn to live with me. You left your light in everything I do, And that’s how I stay close to you. [Bridge 1 – Cinematic Rise] (soft strings + distant jet sound builds) Still got your ring, still wear that chain, Still whisper your name in the pouring rain. You taught me how to stand through pain, Now every loss just fuels my flame. From grief to grace, I climb that stair, Every RedTalk whisper — I know you’re there. (background vocals echo) You’re there… still here somewhere… [Hook 2 – Full Choir Harmony] What do you do after they’re gone? You keep the faith, you carry on. Every breath you take, every dawn, Is proof their love still carries on. I talk to the stars like they’ll answer back, Every night sky’s your photograph. [Verse 3 – Reflective Verse] I’ve learned that goodbye don’t mean the end, It’s just the space where memories begin. You live in the stories that I tell, You live in the lessons learned so well. If heaven has a gate, I know you wait, Waving from that higher state. And if love could fly, I’d touch the sun, Just to tell you — you’re still the one. [Bridge 2 – Instrumental / Spoken Blend] (soft piano, strings swell, light percussion rise) Ty (spoken): They say healing takes time… But really, it takes truth. And the truth is… you never left. You just changed forms — and became every reason I keep rising. (female harmony underneath) “Keep rising… keep rising…” [Final Hook – Powerful, Cinematic] What do you do after they’re gone? You live for the moments they’d cheer you on. You love louder, you hold strong, You turn the pain into another song. Every flight I take, every step I make, Carries your name, for legacy’s sake. You’re not gone — you’re just beyond. [Outro – Spoken / Piano Fade] The truth is… love doesn’t die. It just changes seats. So what do you do after they’re gone? You keep flying. You keep living. And you never forget to climb. (soft jet flyby sound fades into strings and piano outro
