Description
[Verse 1]
Four a.m., I stare at the ceiling, your side cold and bare
Empty mug on the counter — steam gone like you weren't there
Your chair still at the table, turned away where I sit
You say so little now; your silence lands like a hit
I press my palms to the window, watch the streetlight scrape the floor
I gave you all my caring, you gave me less than before
[Pre-Chorus]
I see my past in mirrored glass — everyone walks out the door
The old ache wakes, my breath goes thin, I'm falling to the floor
[Chorus]
My dragon clamps around my ribs at night
He steals my air — won't let me find the light
I'm gasping in the dark — don't let me break apart
Will you stay, or walk right past my heart?
[Verse 2]
You used to hum the chorus to our broken songs at dawn
Now your silence is a courtroom; I'm guilty though I'm gone
The coffee cup is cold, lipstick gone from the rim
You turn your face, you look away; the world goes quiet and dim
Used and left, it echoes — faces change, the colors fade
The dragon curls my shadow up; he keeps the shades of gray
[Pre-Chorus]
I count the hours — one, two, three — terrified you'll disappear
I can't sleep, four a.m. again — your absence screams too clear
[Chorus]
My dragon clamps around my ribs at night
He steals my air — won't let me find the light
I'm gasping in the dark — don't let me break apart
Will you stay, or walk right past my heart?
[Instrumental]
[Guitar Riff — build, scream, cut to low]
[Bridge]
I learn the shape of my own flame — fingers burn but hold
The dragon bares his crooked teeth; I name the pain I know
I pull a spark from inside my chest — it glows against the black
I shout until the silence cracks — I won't just fall back
[Chorus - Altered]
My dragon clamps but he can't own the light
He steals my air — still I reach through the night
No more begging in the dark — I stitch this broken heart
Maybe I'll hold on — maybe I'll keep the light
[Outro]
So here I stand with coffee cold and dawn a fragile gold
Not whole, not healed, but breathing — finding small hands to hold
The dragon's shadow's thinner now; I learn the route, the fight
No one else may save me — maybe I can keep the light.
