I remember the morning the world turned to gold
A story of color I'd never been told before you
The air was just something I breathed
A garden of winter dormant and sheathed
But you touched my pulse you woke up the storm
You taught me a language I'd never have known
I was a statue just waiting for heat
Then I heard the rhythm of our matching feet
I was a ghost then you gave me a name
And lit up my soul with a beautiful flame
You were the first one to make me feel alive
The reason I bloom the way I survived
But now that you're gone the hunger is new
I'm a cavern of silence once filled with you
You were the spark now you're the degree
Of the hollow and empty inside of me
The coffee is bitter the sunlight is grey
I'm going through motions to get through the day
It's harder to be lonely when you've known the light
It's darker than dark in the middle of night
I used to be fine in the quiet and cold
Before I had us and a hand I could hold
Oh I'm waking up to a world without sound
I'm an anchor that's lost and can't find the ground
You gave me the life then you took it away
And left me with nothing but yesterday
You were the first one to make me feel alive
The reason I bloom the way I survived
But now that you're gone the hunger is new
I'm a cavern of silence once filled with you
You were the spark now you're the degree
Of the hollow and empty inside of me
I was alive once I remember how it felt
Now it's just empty so empty
So empty
