Smoke in the silver light (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Smoke curls off the ember in my glass

City streets are empty on this last, long pass

I used to chase every sunset's glow

Now I'm just waiting for a slower flow

The neon hums a different kind of song

One that says it's time to let it slow and strong

Your smile was light on summer nights like these

We'd dance in rain that turned the whole block green

But time keeps moving, even when I stay

Leaving only smoke where your laughter used to sway

Pre-Chorus

So why do I still feel your ghost in every frame?

Why does this old city keep my heart awake at night?

Maybe it's just habit now, maybe it's just pride

Or maybe it's because when the sun dips below the line

The whole world softens up like a page turned slow

And for one minute, I remember how to breathe and let go

Chorus

Smoke in silver light

Leaves me burning still tonight

Every sunset brings back every name

But this time it's just an ember with your flame

Verse

Now the sirens hum a steady beat

Fading headlights make long shadows meet

I'm not chasing anyone, I swear

Just watching how the smoke curls up into air

Your laugh was fire in a crowded room

We'd lose ourselves in every passing tune

But time keeps taking what we can't hold tight

Leaving only ghosts of what once felt right

Pre-Chorus

So why do I still feel your ghost in every frame?

Why does this old city keep my heart awake at night?

Maybe it's just habit now, maybe it's just pride

Or maybe it's because when the sun dips below the line

The whole world softens up like a page turned slow

And for one minute, I remember how to breathe and let go

Chorus

Smoke in silver light

Leaves me burning still tonight

Every sunset brings back every name

But this time it's just an ember with your flame

Bridge

I don't need your name written across the sky

Just give me one more sun that makes my heart try

To move towards something new and bright

And maybe I won't carry your ghost into the night

Chorus

Smoke in silver light

Leaves me burning still tonight

Every sunset brings back every name

But this time it's just an ember with your flame
