heartbroken

Oh

My heart breaks
Burns in flames
At dust, at night
You were shinin' in my light
Now I've drowned in the endless dark night

I see your light fade away
In the silence where we used to stay
(Oh)
Every whisper gets me feel like rain
Drowning me in my own pain

Watching the moon, counting stars
(Oh)
But the sky has forgotten its rule
To keep the light from growing cold
To keep my heart from turnin' old
Love me while the dawn light wreathes
In crystal heath
(Hmm)

The willow dips its leaves into the stream
Where minnows dart like forgotten dreams
Autumn pile its gold beneath our feet
Each step a promise we couldn’t keep

Now I’m heartbroken
Lost in the endless dark night
Chasing the eternal echoes of your goodbye
Every beat just screams your name
But all left is ash and flame
Your fingerprints on the grass
A ghost of us I can’t erase

I feel your love slip away
On the grass we used to lay
(Oh)
Endless 5 years long
But I'm still here waiting for

Chasin' the stars and the scars
But the world has forgotten who we are
To keep the warmth from goin' cold
To keep my soul from turnin' old
Hold me till the morning breathes
In broken streets
(In broken streets, yeah)

Our breath hangs over lakes like frozen lace
Each step cracks through time’s brittle face
The creek’s black ice still hums your name
Break through or just let the silence claim

Now I’m heartbroken
Drowning in the deepest water
Chasing the love I was missing in the memories
Every beat tells me
“Who’s to blame for the ash and flame?”
They say "Wait, till it’s better"
But it cut me deeper

Maybe bones must break to rise
Maybe homes make new light
If the pain’s a thread that sews my skin
I’ll be wearing the wounds as medicine

Now I am still feeling sad
But now I have no regret
I’ve been learning to be happy
(Happy)
I tried and tried but I failed many times
(Yeah, I tried)

Maybe time won’t steal the ache
Maybe pain’s the price it takes
To learn that “broken”doesn’t mean “less”
Just a different kind of strength

Now I have learned how to breathe
How to coexist with sadness
'Cause the time is approaching nearly
I’m happy now it’s getting better
