An Honest Reflection

We built a home from half-lit sparks Cheap wine kisses in parking lot darks Your laugh hit like a summer relapse Now every memory fades to black You traced forever across my skin Like broken saints confessing sins We were fire in a dead-end town Too young to know love burns down And I still hear your voice Inside the static noise Like a ghost trapped in the walls Of everything we lost So tear my name out of your chest Like I was never there We held each other like a lifeline Now we choke on empty air You said forever with your fingers crossed Now I’m another casualty of love gone wrong We were beautiful destruction Now we’re just smoke in the hall Cold coffee and hospital lights Screaming matches at 2 a.m. nights Every silence cut deeper than knives Two hearts barely surviving alive You looked at me like I was a wound Something you outgrew too soon And I kept trying to save what died Dragging our corpse through every fight LET’S GO! I GAVE YOU ALL MY BLOOD YOU GAVE ME STATIC WE TURNED A BEDROOM INTO A CASKET LOVE LIKE A CAR CRASH BEAUTIFUL PANIC WE WERE A DISASTER DISGUISED AS ROMANTIC If I could live inside the past Would we still collapse this fast? Or were we just two lonely souls Trying to make broken feel whole? So tear my name out of your chest Like I was never there We held each other like a lifeline Now we choke on empty air You swore we’d never fade away But forever died day by day We were the soundtrack to a tragedy Singing love songs while we bled Your side of the bed still feels cold Even after all these years And I hate that part of me Still wishes you were here We were fire We were hope We were beautiful Until we broke… #metalcore #posthardcore #newmusic #indieartist #emorevival #lyricvideo #undergroundmusic #emotionalmusic #modernmetal #breakdown #breakupsongs #musicdiscovery #newmusic #screamo
