Lyric

The crying sound of shoes

It fades along the street

In sorrow’s thin disguise

My weakness comes to meet

A shadow hides my face

Beneath the city’s hue

I walk this empty place

The night remembers you

Close my eyes, the film still runs

An endless reel of broken suns

I try to catch the fading light

But tears are falling out of sight

It all came down, it slipped away

There was nothing left to say

The screen of night, the light was torn

The dark was where my heart was born

No one’s coming back again

This place is lost to time

They chased another wind

And left their ghosts behind

The voices turn to dust

Their echoes slowly fade

I reach for what I must

The dream we never made

Forgotten things can’t move ahead

They lie in sleep, forever dead

I breathe them out, they disappear

And whisper softly, “still you’re here.”

The night was gone, the dawn was pale

Nothing left beneath the veil

I ran away, afraid to see

The red light shining down on me

If I could walk that road again

I’d cry before the final end

The curtain falls, the moment’s clear

The echo fades, but you are near

It all came down, it slipped away

There was nothing left to say

The screen of night, the light was torn

The dark was where my heart was born

The night was gone, the dawn was pale

Nothing left beneath the veil

I ran away, afraid to see

The red light shining down on me

I won’t forget, I won’t forget

Your voice remains, your silhouette

Forevermore, I speak your name

A monologue through endless flame
