Dark Skies

Sometimes we hold another’s brokenness, only to be abandoned in the ruins they left behind. If you know that ache, this song is yours.

Lyrics:

I gave you the fire from my cold chest
Watched it glow while I felt less
You built a world where you could rest
And left me drowning in the mess

You’re a beacon
I’m a shadow
You rise high
I sink shallow

I pulled a star from your dark sky
Placed it in your hands
I watched you fly
Now you’re a moon and I still cry
For all of the ways we said goodbye
I long for night just to see you shine

Your orbit pulls but keeps me still
The emptiness I cannot fill
The galaxy is like a cage
You turned the page
I stayed in rage

You’re a lantern
I’m the night
You burn bright
I fade from sight

I pulled a star from your dark sky
Placed it in your hands
I watched you fly
Now you’re a moon and I still cry
For all of the ways we said goodbye
I long for night just to see you shine
