Lyrics
A huge thank you to Foggy for making Stara public! This is my first time trying something like this, and while I know the level isn't perfect yet, I really hope you all enjoy it. 💖
⚠️ Please be careful with the volume at the end of the bridge ⚠️
Intro
Verse 1
Ashes drift through the night
A phantom of what we used to fight
All the sins are burning bright
A crack in the skyline bleeds blue
Traces of a world I never knew
Fingers trace words we can't define
Your voice
Your voice
Is it still mine
Verse 2
The sky is heavy
The ground won’t sing
Every gloom pulls a string
Of everything
Of everything
Pre-chorus
And I’m calling
Calling your name
But it’s all the same
It’s all the same
Chorus 1
When all sins are burning
And all words have been written
What’s left to say
What’s left to say
When the fire keeps turning
And the truth feels forbidden
What’s left to stay
What’s left to stay
break
Bridge
We spoke in fragments
Sharp and thin
A labyrinth of where we’ve been
⚠️ And I can’t find the start again ⚠️
Chorus 2
duet
When all languages have been misunderstood
We speak forgiveness like we always could
Not fighting
Not running
No storm to outlast
Outro
duet
Every silence cuts too deep
The air we breathe won’t let me sleep
It’s yours to keep
(What’s left to say)
It’s yours to keep
(What’s left to stay)
I’m not the one you’re fighting against..
