Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You left without a sound, not even smoke Just a silence wide enough to choke I stitched the wound, I cleaned the blade Told myself I wouldn’t fade [Verse 2] They say you vanished for my sake But love don’t leave and call it grace You were fire once, then gone like steam Now I wake with ghosts inside my seams [Chorus] But I still walk, I still heal I still grind the gears and feel Your name caught in the copper air Your shadow sitting in my chair And if you ever think of me Think of the woman you let bleed But wouldn’t die— Just burned, and stayed In the ash I breathe [Verse 3] The clinic hums, the city groans I stitch their wounds and mend their bones But mine don’t close, not where you tore The part of me you never mourned [Bridge – quiet, almost whispered] I don’t cry where they can see But some nights, you still kneel in me Not a prayer— Not a sin— Just the space you used to live in [Chorus] But I still walk, I still heal I still grind the gears and feel Your name caught in the copper air Your shadow sitting in my chair And if you ever think of me Think of the woman you let bleed But wouldn’t die— Just burned, and stayed In the ash I breathe [Outro] So come back or don’t Break me or don’t But I won’t wait where the fire won’t grow I’ve got hands, I’ve got steel And I’ve got work that makes me real Even if the wound stays deep— I’ll walk through smoke On my own two feet.
