Verse 1:
In the shadows where I linger, cold as night,
Whispers of your laughter echo, fading from sight.
Each step feels like a burden, heart draped in gray,
Wishing on the memories, but they always betray.
Chorus:
Goodbye in ashes, the words left unsaid,
Living in silence, a soul full of dread.
Head hung low, I walk this ghostly road,
Tortured existence, a life turned to stone.
Verse 2:
Time slips like sand through fingers of despair,
Every corner holds a ghost, a memory laid bare.
The world keeps on spinning, but I’m lost in the fray,
A hollow shell of what was, the colors fade away.
Chorus:
Goodbye in ashes, the words left unsaid,
Living in silence, a soul full of dread.
Head hung low, I walk this ghostly road,
Tortured existence, a life turned to stone.
Bridge:
Searching for solace under the weight of the sky,
But all I find is darkness, and the reasons why.
Alive in this struggle, yet I feel so far gone,
With each passing moment, I just hold on.
Verse 3:
Each breath feels like a battle, each heartbeat a lie,
Eyes filled with shadows, I watch the world die.
A fading reflection of the man I once knew,
In this realm of the broken, I’m swallowed by blue.
Chorus:
Goodbye in ashes, the words left unsaid,
Living in silence, a soul full of dread.
Head hung low, I walk this ghostly road,
Tortured existence, a life turned to stone.
Outro:
So I bid my farewell, tender and slow,
Through the echoes of longing, in whispers below.
With a heart full of pain and a soul made of scars,
Goodbye in ashes, I’m vanishing like stars.
