Foley

I can't escape the hollow of my soul
Give me back my life you hold
You go and fall
Momentary yet profound
In stillness
I was a fool for wounding you

And here I stand with my stories untold
Sorry for paths never strolled
And here I am without you my love
Sorry for the future that I stole

I traced my name in broken glass
On windows to a forgotten past
I watched it blur
Every promise dressed in flame
Every loss I couldn't name
Still I burn

If I could fold the night in two
I’d leave the darker half for you

And here I stand with my stories untold
Sorry for paths never strolled
And here I am without you my love
Sorry for the future that I stole

No saints remain to call me home
No map to guide these hands of bone
If grace exists, it’s passing through
A flicker in the dark I knew

Here I stand, no fear to show
Carrying the weight I chose
And here I stand, no fear to show
Letting go of what I owed

The silence learns to say my name
I breathe again
I'm not the same
