Lyric

I wrote your name in candle wax

Trembling hands, haunted nights, homeless

I scribbled our secrets in the margins where hope fades

Each heartbeat inked, my tears drowning the path

If love could cross absence and defy the ocean

You would be here, you would be there, of course

I whispered a thousand "I miss you"

Throughout the passing seasons

Time heals nothing

It teaches us to hope

These are my dead letters

My midnight confessions

Pages stained with everything

The world calls madness

If longing were a language

You would know every verse by heart

I sent you all my tenderness

From the other side of time

I wrote to you that the sun was becoming cruel

Each morning without you, each artificial breath. The house grew smaller each day without your voice

My arms craved the emptiness you left

I confided in you my laughter, repeated in silence

Our memories stitched into prayers of hope

To keep going, to get through

I whispered a thousand "I miss you"s

Through the passing seasons

Time heals nothing

It teaches us to hope

These are my unspoken letters

My midnight confessions

Pages stained with everything

The world calls madness

If longing were a language

You would know every verse by heart

I sent you all my tenderness

From the other side of time

I would have burned the sky for you

Stopped every clock in the world

If time were the enemy

I would have become flame

And in the silence

Each letter was a lifebuoy

A thread to hold onto

Even when I couldn't

These are my dead letters

But your name lives on

In every word, every secret

Every night I survived

The door opens

The world breathes again

No more dead letters

Just you, just me

And a love without a tomb
