Unsubstantial Shadow

[Verse 1]
Buried beneath the ashes,
Screams of dead laughter.
Your shadow still walks in my dreams,
But your voice breaks me into pieces.
[Chorus]
I searched for you in the dust of what’s lost,
In the ruins of what we once were.
Each step pulls me deeper down,
An abyss where love has died.
[Verse 2]
Your hollow eyes
Stare at me through the gloom.
The fire consumed us, but brought no warmth—
Only ashes now mixing with my blood.
[Bridge]
Why won’t you come?
Why won’t you drag this corpse away?
I was made to follow you into hell,
But here I burn alone, forever.
[Chorus]
I searched for you in the dust of what’s lost,
In the ruins of what we once were.
Each step pulls me deeper down,
An abyss where love has died.
[Outro]
Uh...
Beneath the ashes,
Where your bones and mine
Will finally… embrace.
