Lyrics
An empty chair beneath a dying light
Shadows dance where you should have been tonight
I built a bridge, but burned it down
A silent pyre in a ghostly town
The lines I drew became my chains
Fences built to hold my pain
But as the walls grew high and strong
The echoes of love turned into songs
I planted seeds to find my peace
But the harvest came with no release
I wove my heart into this shield
Yet lost the warmth I tried to feel
When I set boundaries to guard my soul
I lost the family that once made me whole
A mother's voice like a distant star
Reaching out, but always too far
Her words like rain
Like a distant star
Reaching out, but always too far
The lines I drew became my chains
Fences built to hold my pain
But as the walls grew high and strong
The echoes of love turned into songs
I planted seeds to find my peace
But the harvest came with no release
I wove my heart into this shield
Yet lost the warmth I tried to feel
When I set boundaries to guard my soul
I lost the family that once made me whole
A mother's voice like a distant star
Reaching out, but always too far
Her words like rain on a broken field
Soft but unable to make me yield
The path I walk is paved with stone
Each step whispers, you're alone
I thought I'd heal, I thought I'd mend
But every choice feels like an end
I planted seeds to find my peace
But the harvest came with no release
I wove my heart into this shield
Yet lost the warmth I tried to feel
When I set boundaries to guard my soul
I lost the family that once made me whole
I carried the weight of unspoken words
Each one a feather, yet together a curse
A house of glass, shattered by choice
The silence louder than any voice
I set the fire, I fed the flame
