Lyric

Ceiling’s caving

In slow motion

Dust in the air

Like frozen oceans

Shadows gather

At the corners of my bed

All my quiet

Turning loud inside my head

I feel it circling

Closer every night

But there’s a flicker

Buried in the fright

Black wings over me

Spread like a storm I cannot see

But my small light

My cracked belief

Still burns beneath the weight of grief

Black wings over me

Poison the air I try to breathe

But in the dark you won’t defeat

The last soft spark that stays with me

Mouth full of ashes

Words taste gray

Mirror won’t answer

When I say my name

Hope’s a thin thread

Pulled tight between my teeth

If I don’t let go

It can’t be seized

I feel it settling

Cold against my skin

But there’s a whisper

Saying don’t give in

Black wings over me

Spread like a storm I cannot see

But my small light

My cracked belief

Still burns beneath the weight of grief

Black wings over me

Poison the air I try to breathe

But in the dark you won’t defeat

The last soft spark that stays with me

Let it cover the sky

Let it swallow the day

I will hide this ember

Where they can’t scrape it away

If all that I am

Is a tremor

A plea

Then I’ll tremble forever

Before I let it leave

Black wings over me

Spread like a storm I cannot see

But my small light

My cracked belief

Still burns beneath the weight of grief

Black wings over me

Drowning the world down on its knees

But in the hush I grit my teeth

I am the flame you can’t unsee
