Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – soft, almost mumbled] It’s 3AM and I still feel it Ash on my shirt, pain in my spirit Eyes red, heart cold, you ain’t near it But I still hear it… yeah, I still hear it… ⸻ [Verse 1] I roll another ‘cause it slows it down But your voice still echoes in the background You said, “Don’t lose yourself,” and I tried But I lost you somewhere on the other side Now I’m sleepin’ with ghosts in the sheets And they all wear your perfume, baby, it’s deep I ain’t touched a bottle in a couple months But I miss you worse when I’m sober as f**k ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I thought time would kill the sting But it just taught me how to sing Through the cracks and the cough Through the silence you left when you took off ⸻ [Chorus] Now it’s smoke in my chest, hurt in my breath Tryna find peace, but I ain’t found it yet You were the calm in my storm, now it’s rain You left me stuck with the guilt and the blame Yeah, I light it just to kill the ache But all that does is make me break You’re gone, I guess I needed less But all I got now is smoke in my chest ⸻ [Verse 2] Every room in this place got your name on the walls Even after I painted ‘em all Your hoodie’s still hangin’ by the front door And I still check the drive like you’ll pull in once more I ain’t tryna write a song, I’m just bleedin’ You moved on, I’m still here barely breathin’ Told myself I’d heal in time But time don’t help when the pain feels right ⸻ [Bridge – falsetto or slightly cracked voice] I been chasin’ highs I’ll never reach I been sayin’ lies like “I’m at peace” But I still sleep with your picture face-down ‘Cause I can’t stand seein’ you smile now ⸻ [Final Chorus – quieter, broken voice] It’s just smoke in my chest, love in the past A heart built of glass that shattered too fast You were the only thing keepin’ me sane Now all I got is regret and your name Yeah, I light it just to feel okay But I don’t feel nothin’ anyway You’re gone, I guess I failed the test Now all I got left is smoke in my chest
