[Intro]
Silence holds the room like a chair carved from dawn,
Footsteps fade to echoes of a name long gone.
[Verse 1]
The clock keeps counting breaths I can’t exhale,
A hollow in the chest where your laughter used to sail.
I walk through crowded streets, but I’m somewhere else,
Invisible to the world, listening for your bells.
[Chorus]
Grief is a tide that breaks me on the shore,
An endless ache I carry at the core.
Life spins around me while I stand still,
Holding your memory, aching still.
[Verse 2]
Pictures bloom, then wither in the frame of night,
I reach for you in the darkness, nothing but light.
The days march on with faces I don’t know,
Yet every sunrise whispers that you won’t come home.
[Chorus]
Grief is a tide that breaks me on the shore,
An endless ache I carry at the core.
Life spins around me while I stand still,
Holding your memory, aching still.
[Bridge]
If time could mend a broken seam, I’d sew,
A line from me to you wherever you go.
But the room keeps breathing, the world won’t pause,
And I learn to carry you inside my bones.
[Chorus]
Grief is a tide that breaks me on the shore,
An endless ache I carry at the core.
Life spins around me while I stand still,
Holding your memory, aching still.
[Outro]
Until the morning comes and I learn to breathe,
Your absence stays a whisper in the leaves.
