(Verse 1)
I stood at the edge where the sky once bled
Ash in my hands, names lost to the dead
The swords in the ground—each a vow, each a cry
Now silence is louder than any goodbye
(Verse 2)
They marched with hearts they never had
Chasing light through ruins and ash
One by one, they disappeared
And left behind the weight of fear
(Pre-Chorus)
We were told it was for peace
But peace never came—just a long, slow cease
(Chorus)
No one returned
No voices remain
Only echoes in dust
And a whisper of names
I reach through the dark, but the warmth is gone
Still I call their names…
Though I stand alone
(Verse 3)
The Master just smiled and walked away
Said, “You’ll understand… one day.”
But all I found were shattered stars
And hearts that broke like battle scars
(Bridge – spoken/whispered)
I remember their laughter
Their dreams, their pain
But memory fades
When there’s no one left to say their name
(Final Chorus)
No one returned
No footsteps remain
Only stories in ruins
And keys lost in rain
I carry them all—though my voice is thin
If no one returned…
Then let me begin
(Outro – soft, fading)
I still remember.
I still remain.
I still call them…
By name.
