Lovers' Collision

I called your name into the void tonight

Your silence hit me like a fist in flight

I thought we danced beneath the shadowed moon

But now your words cut sharp and end too soon

You shout my name like thunder in a storm

But never see the fire that keeps me warm

You build a house of walls too thick to break

I’m screaming loud but it's an empty ache

Why do we rise just to fall so hard

Hearts tangled tight but they pull apart

In the darkness we twist and collide

Lovers lost on the same wild tide

I gave you my heart raw and unrefined

You held it close then left it behind

Your eyes once lit my way through the night

Now they’re mirrors reflecting a dying light

You claim the sky while you bury the ground

I’m sinking in shadows while you’re not around

Your love is a river that runs bone dry

And I’m left here drowning asking why

Our words are daggers and our silence screams

We’re haunted by ghosts of our shattered dreams

In this dark we’re both sinners and saints

But love’s a canvas and we’re losing the paint
