Lyric

High noon, but the world is turning black

Looking at the clouds, there’s no turning back

My heart is heavy, sinking like a stone

In this quiet room, I’m standing all alone

My hands still remember, they won't let go

The warmth of your skin, that soft, gentle glow

I lit up a cigarette to help me forget

But the smoke hits my eyes with a sting of regret

"It’s over now," "I’ve reached my limit," you said

The echoes of your whispers are alive in my head

The scales were always tilted, leaning to one side

Now there’s nothing left, nowhere left to hide

On these empty scales, there’s no weight at all

Just the shadow of the pride before the fall

Now there’s nothing left, nothing remains

Only the silence and the ghost of our chains

Faster than the rain falling from the sky

The ashes start to crumble as the hours go by

I can’t even turn us into a memory yet

Just a cold draft blowing, a lingering threat

After we parted, it finally hit home

The pain in my chest, under this ribcage dome

It’s blaming me now, for the things I didn't see

For the way I let you slip away from me

"I’ve had enough," "I can’t do this," you cried

As you turned your back and left our world outside

Through a life full of errors, through days gone astray

Now there’s nothing left at the end of the day

On these empty scales, there’s no weight at all

Just the shadow of the pride before the fall

Now there’s nothing left, nothing remains

Only the silence and the ghost of our chains

Nothing in my pockets, nothing in my soul

Just a jagged heart that’ll never be whole

Watch the smoke curl, watch the ash fall

I’m a man who’s managed to lose it all

Now there’s nothing left

Nothing left to hold

Just the smoke and the rain

And the bitter cold

Nothing left at all
