Fading Room

(Verse 1)
Dim light on your side of the bed,
Your ghost still sleeps in my head,
You said forever like a prayer half-said,
Now silence hums where your voice once bled.
Ashtray full, the night won’t move,
Every song just bends to you,
I trace your name on the window’s hue,
The cold air feels like the truth.
(Pre-Chorus)
I keep replaying how your eyes would fade,
When love got loud and the colors decayed,
Now I’m stuck between what was and what stayed,
You’re gone—but the echo remains.
(Chorus)
In this fading room, I still see you move,
Through the smoke and the static bloom,
Every breath I take pulls me closer to—
A shadow that looks like you.
In this fading room, I can’t break through,
Every chord I play bleeds your tune,
I keep singing to the ghost of you—
In this fading room.
(Verse 2)
Half-lit dreams in a rose-grey haze,
Our past on loop like a lost mixtape,
I reach for warmth but the moment frays,
Love drips slow in the coldest ways.
(Pre-Chorus)
You said time heals what the heart can’t hold,
But I’m still numb in the afterglow,
Your scent still clings to the winter coat,
And I wear it just to feel close.
(Chorus)
In this fading room, I still see you move,
Through the smoke and the static bloom,
Every breath I take pulls me closer to—
A shadow that looks like you.
In this fading room, I can’t break through,
Every chord I play bleeds your tune,
I keep singing to the ghost of you—
In this fading room.
(Bridge)
And maybe in another life,
We don’t fall apart mid-flight,
Maybe I don’t watch your light
Slip into the night.
(Final Chorus)
In this fading room, I still see you move,
Through the smoke and the static bloom,
Every breath I take pulls me closer to—
A shadow that looks like you.
In this fading room, I’m lost in tune,
Your goodbye stuck under my skin,
And I’m still whispering—
Come back again.
