You Still Linger

(álbum: Be Consumed - 2022)

It leads to this
An antithesis of my false projection
And loneliness, a consequence
Of rejected affection

Nailed shut, my doors, I couldn't find you after the comedown
Once more ignored, I couldn't see you through the meltdown
I can't come to grips, I can't handle this
Memories pushed down
I am deafened by the sound

Searching for silence, won't you let me be
Lost in the violence, watch me sink away

And no matter where I go
You'll be on my shoulder
Like a ghost, only ever growing colder

Ignored my voice
There's nothing left for me to say
Destroyed my choice
Suffocate in the dismay
Drown sorrow with regret
Can't forget, so I lament
Terrified of what we'll find
If I ever let you see inside my mind

Searching for silence, won't you let me be
Lost in the violence, watch me sink away

Resonating, disintegrating
Abdicating, all colors fading
You still linger

And I can't come back from this
You still linger
Can I come back from this?
From a place where
You still linger

Searching for silence, watch me sink away

Searching for silence, won't you let me be
Lost in the violence, watch me sink away

You'll always be my ghost, making me grow cold
