Lyrics
Verse 1
I'm left broken—
Torn wide open—
Trust collapsed with nothing spoken,
Time ripped out of my cold, numb hands.
Memories fall like stones in sand.
The night bears down—
a bitter weight—
I breathe slowly, afraid of what awaits.
So I sit here in the fire's dim light,
Dragging your shadow through one more night.
Chorus
With frozen hands, I press my heart—
To hold it still, to keep it from falling apart.
Embers drop heavy, like truths I can't face,
Flames choke out warmth, leaving only your trace.
If dawn breaks through, I'll lose this fight...
But not tonight.
Not tonight.
Verse 2
The wind hits hard—
a hollow strike—
Echoes of you land where the dark is thickest.
The stars feel distant, carved from stone,
Since that night I learned what it meant to be alone.
Ash settles heavy on my skin,
A quiet burial for what we've been.
Every breath a weight I drag through the night,
Holding what's gone with fading light.
Chorus
With frozen hands, I press my heart—
To hold it still, to keep it from falling apart.
Embers drop heavy, like truths I can't face,
Flames choke out warmth, leaving only your trace.
If dawn breaks through, I'll lose this fight...
But not tonight.
Not tonight.
Bridge
Let the fire crack—
each snap a break,
Let shadows fall like stones in a lake.
I'll speak your name with a trembling voice,
A last confession without a choice.
Final Chorus
With frozen hands, I press my heart—
The weight of loss tears it apart.
Hold this moment, don't let it die,
I'm bracing for dawn, but not tonight.
The world can fall, I won't ignite—
Not tonight.
Not tonight.
