In the dark of this quiet room There's such intense loneliness I feel the aching deep inside Afraid of what this night could bring As my tears fall silently A cold shiver runs down my spine Picturing what my life would be The endless void you'd leave behind If you were ever gone... Left this world... Left me. I couldn’t bear the thought Or the pain it made me feel I couldn’t catch my breath Such suffocating emptiness Imagining a world without you There would be nothing Just ashes and dust... Left behind... For me. But then the sun rose again It brought you back to life Because the sun rose again And brought you back to me as you wake, I breathe again We're rising from the ashes I miss you before you go Theres never enough time Constant cravings, needing more I always want you around Even when you exasperate me And drive me insane I still would do anything To stay in a world with you So I dust off the ashes Leave the past behind And I choose you... Now... Every time. But when the sun rose again It brought you back to me It’s another day, another chance We’re rising from the ashes I’ll stop myself from shaking I take your hand in mine Press my lips to your forehead Then rest my head upon your chest As we settle down to sleep I hear the rhythm of your heart Thankful for another day Rising from the ashes [copyright © 2026 Kiki Kutie — unauthorized use or reproduction is prohibited]
