[Verse 1]
I wake up to silence where your laughter used to be,
Your shadow’s still dancing in the corners of me.
The bed’s cold, the air feels too still,
Every dream I chase just ends uphill.
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought love was forever, I thought we were strong,
Now I’m replaying every moment, wondering where we went wrong.
[Chorus]
'Cause I’m drowning in memories,
Every word, every touch, every ghost of you and me.
My heart’s a warzone, my soul’s torn apart,
You left your name carved in the walls of my heart.
Now I’m staring at the door,
Crying tears on the floor.
[Verse 2]
I still wear your hoodie though it don’t feel the same,
your essence is gone as I deal with that pain,
I scroll through our pictures just to see our smiles,
But I’m reminded of things that will never be again.
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought I could move on, I thought time could mend,
But it’s hard to start over when I lost my love again.
[Chorus]
Yeah, I’m drowning in memories,
Every word, every touch, of you and me just fades away,
My heart’s a warzone, my soul’s torn apart,
You left your name carved in the walls of my heart.
Now I’m staring at the door,
with these crying tears on the floor.
[Bridge]
Maybe someday, I’ll find peace in the pain,
But tonight, it’s just thunder and acid rain.
You were my light, my reason, my flame,
Now I’m just ashes whispering your name.
[Final Chorus]I’m still drowning in memories,
Every heartbeat feels like a tragedy.
If love was a promise, then you broke it slow,
Now I’m left with the pieces you’ll never know.
The ring has been removed
the final chapter at its end.
my heart is kept in a cage,
locked for protection again.
Crying tears on the floor
Crying tears on the floor
Crying tears on the floor.
First up, the title just
First up, the title just sings the song! And it's heart: "love, once thought eternal, has ended, leaving only grief, memories, and scars."
It captures the paradox of heartbreak and its desire to move on versus the inability to let go. The repeated refrain of “tears on the floor” embodies a raw, uncontainable sorrow of someone had left behind. Truly moved.
