City lights are falling asleep
But I’m still wide awake in your name
Your echo lingers on my sheets
Even though you’re gone again
I whispered all my fears into the dark
You stayed quiet, but it felt like a spark
You stayed in the silence
Like you knew I’d still hear
Every word you didn’t say
Still rings in my ear
I reached out in my dream
But you faded so clear
You stayed in the silence
But somehow you were near
Midnight rain taps on my soul
Like you once did, soft and cold
Even goodbye was too kind
For the way you left my mind
You didn’t lie, but truth never came
Now I wear your ghost like my name
You stayed in the silence
Like you knew I’d still hear
Every word you didn’t say
Still rings in my ear
I reached out in my dream
But you faded so clear
You stayed in the silence
But somehow you were near
If love was meant to fade away
Then why do you burn brighter every day?
If letting go is what I need
Why does your shadow still breathe?
You stayed in the silence
And it felt so unfair
But I found you again
In the stillness of air
Now I sleep with the quiet
Like a promise we share
You stayed in the silence
But I knew you were there
