Lyrics

You left like it meant nothing
But the quiet never does
I'm still haunted by your absence
Like a scream beneath the buzz

The lights don't feel like comfort
Just reflections I avoid
I sleep inside the static
Of a room you left destroyed

You said we'd fade, not break
But fading still feels fake
I touch the air where you used to breathe
And it burns more than it should

Now there's salt in the silence
Ashes in the rain
You were thunder without warning
Now I echo in the pain
It's not grief — it's survival
And I wear it like a crown
I'm the mess you left behind
But I'm not the one who drowned

I played your lines like gospel
But the scripture didn't hold
You smiled like you were healing
But your hands were always cold

I still taste the things you never said
In every empty room
But silence doesn't love you back
And ghosts don't make good truths

You vanished like a promise
That forgot how to be real
I carry what you couldn't
But I won't forget to feel

Now there's salt in the silence
Ashes in the rain
You were thunder without warning
Now I echo in the pain
It's not grief — it's survival
And I wear it like a crown
I'm the mess you left behind
But I'm not the one who drowned

You cracked the sky and walked away
But lightning doesn't choose to stay
I'm still here, and I still breathe
You took the magic — I kept me

There's salt in the silence
But I've learned how to stand
No more thunder in your shadow
I'm the storm — I understand
You wrote the ending in a whisper
But I rewrote every sound
You left me for the wreckage
But I built this from the ground
