Ashes between us ( Metal )

Ashes between us ( Metal ) - HotPotMusic

There were voices once, soft like drifted snow
Now the rooms forget they were ever known
No farewells, no doors left ajar
Just cold places where hearts once were

I reached across a time-worn thread
But silence is all I was fed
Names unspoken start to blur
Truth dissolves where they once were

You were part of every hour
Now I count what’s lost, not what’s ours

Ashes between us, scattered and thin
Where you once stood, now nothing begins
I walk through the still, wrapped in what’s gone
Held by the weight of what can’t move on
Ashes between us, heavy and wide
A kingdom of absence at either side

Old words dry like pages torn
Emptiness dressed as the norm
I speak but no one speaks in turn
Only quiet left to learn

I lit a candle where we once stood
Its flame bowed down like it understood
Time won’t heal what won’t return
Only leaves that cease to burn

You were part of every hour
Now I count what’s lost, not what’s ours

Ashes between us, scattered and thin
Where you once stood, now nothing begins
I walk through the still, wrapped in what’s gone
Held by the weight of what can’t move on
Ashes between us, heavy and wide
A kingdom of absence at either side

Each hallway echoes in foreign tone
Familiar walls feel overgrown
I walk through memories grown cold
With hands that can no longer hold

You were the light on dim lit floors
Now just a hush behind the doors

Ashes between us, scattered and thin
Where you once stood, now nothing begins
I walk through the still, wrapped in what’s gone
Held by the weight of what can’t move on
Ashes between us, heavy and wide
A kingdom of absence at either side

They left in fragments, unannounced
All that remains cannot be found

Ashes between us, nothing to mend
Paths unfinished, roads with no end
I breathe in what they left behind
Echoes of presence redefined
Ashes between us, carried and worn
A quiet kept since we were torn
