**Verse 1**
(Instrumental introduction with atmospheric pads and a simple, pulsing guitar riff)
**Lyrics**
You said forever, but forever's come and gone
Left me with just a shadow, where our love once shone
I tried to hold on tight, but you were already gone
Leaving me to pick up the pieces, of a love that's turned to stone
**Chorus**
Oh, the silence is deafening, in the space you left behind
I'm searching for a reason, but it's hard to find
In the embers of our love, I'm left to unwind
The threads of a betrayal, that I never thought I'd find
**Verse 2**
Memories of your laughter, they still linger on
But the fire that once burned bright, has faded to a dying dawn
I thought our love was a flame, that would never lose its light
But now I'm left to wonder, if it was all just a lie
**Chorus**
Oh, the silence is deafening, in the space you left behind
I'm searching for a reason, but it's hard to find
In the embers of our love, I'm left to unwind
The threads of a betrayal, that I never thought I'd find
**Bridge**
Maybe I was blind, to the signs that were there
Maybe I was lost, in the love that we shared
But now I see the truth, in the tears that I've cried
And I'm left to wonder, why you had to say goodbye
**Chorus**
Oh, the silence is deafening, in the space you left behind
I'm searching for a reason, but it's hard to find
In the embers of our love, I'm left to unwind
The threads of a betrayal, that I never thought I'd find
**Outro**
(Instrumental outro with layered female vocals, building up to a haunting finale)
